day 28
i would let my future students use black board to help provide them with basic background information, as a starting point for a research paper. For instance, If I were teaching The Scarlet Letter, and assigned a three page paper, I would let them use Wikipedia to learn about early colonial America so as to provide them with a basis for their paper. I would not allow them to site Wikipedia, because my goal would be to prepare them for college and in college we don't site Wikipedia.

Day 27
here's a link to the website I chose to validate.
The website is not a credible source of information because the tree octopus is clearly a fictitious creature. The domain is .net, making it a personal site, and the identity of the author is not clearly identified. There are no reviews or authentications posted by experts. And in one of the photos you can clearly tell that the tree octopus sited is a fake stuffed animal.
