3.1 Discussion
 

Objective:

• Practice evaluating sources according to their accuracy, credibility, objectivity, currency, comprehensiveness, and authority

Instructions:

Read the three sources provided in Practical Argument between pages 296-301, and evaluate two of the three sources for the following: 

• accuracy
• credibility
• objectivity
• currency
• comprehensiveness
• authority

Tip #1: You do not need to compose a formal paragraph for each source, but your sentences should be complete sentences. 

Tip #2: If you need some inspiration to help you during this activity, it might be helpful to assume that you are preparing to write an argumentative essay on the topic of whether information posted on social-networking sites threatens privacy.
