primary vs. secondary source

1. http://sharylattkisson.com/ebolas-u-s-spread-whats-going-wrong. This is a primary source because they are not biased, use factual evidence, and they use other sources to back them up.
2. http://www.stopbullying.gov. this is a secondary source because it is bias towards the situation.
3. http://www.nbcnews.com/feature/edward-snowden-interview. This can be considered a good source because it shows interviews on edward snowden.
4. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historical_rankings_of_Presidents_of_the_United_States. This is an example of a bad source because it is opinionated instead of factual.
5. http://www.puresight.com/Useful-tools/the-pros-and-cons-of-facebook.html. This is a good source because it shows factual evidence. But this could also be a bad source because it doesn't show any other sources to back it up.

online persona

The person presented in my online persona is an observer. An observer is the person that lurks on other's pages and follows them but never comments. That person is kind of like me because at times i don't comment on what other's say, but other times I comment on every little thing somebody says. My online persona says that i graduated college and work at burger king ( which obviously isn't true ). If someone knew me only through facebook they would think that i am a loner because i post mostly selfies by myself. My online persona some what a reflection of the real me because in social media i don't post a lot of statuses but in real life i do not stop talking.

digital natives against digital immigrants

when some one is a digital native they have a lot of experience with social media and internet. they also have advanced technology like ps4 and plasma screen t.v's. being a digital native can be both a good and bad thing because it allows them to advance in society but it is also a bad thing because one might get too attached with specific websites like Facebook. Digital natives don't have an advantage over digital immigrants because digital natives can find information faster but they might find false information.

facebook's rate lowers

Facebook is not as popular as before because it has many bugs that need fixes and because people found a greater interest in other social media websites like instagram. ve ni actually agree with the article because i have noticed that i do not use Facebook as much as i use kik or instgram, i use Facebook to watch videos but i use instagram and kik to post photos and talk to people.

Blogging skills

I like to hang out with friends

the affect of apps.

The article "A Gossip App Brought My High School to a Halt" ultimately talks about this app called " yik yak" which affected every one one way or another. I believe this article tells a pretty good description of the affect an app has on people and the school. This app had such a large affect on the school people people like to hear bad things about others and ruin their reputations. Students should grow up and stop trying to over power others just to feel superior. Parents should also play a part in there children's life's and make sure they are safe and to make sure there child is not doing anything to harm other's.
