    I thought this list of research tips from U.S. News is although very short, it's also very effective in describing key things to focus on during research. I especially though that #2 was a great way to look at your sources when doing the actual writing part of the paper.

    I was reading some of these when I was looking for something to post this week. I thought this list was very useful and I will be using some of these tips for our paper!

    This is what happens when someone decides to skew their evidence or research findings a little bit. Not a pretty sight. I am sure we wont be sent to court but it is important to keep out findings as they are and not skew them.

    Geeze, this is kind of crazy. How did he think he could get away with something like that?

    These pictures are very moving and the author intended it to be that way. The pictures appeal to the audiences patriotic side at times and also appeal to sadness or great respect. I know it is long but these pictures are truly worth taking your time to look at.

    These pictures are so cool and powerful! I think so many of them appeal to pathos and the emotions of the audience due to both the sadness and the triumphant feelings that the pictures give off. Great visual rhetoric example! Totally worth looking through.

    Absolutely incredible. They give you a feeling that there is still faith in humanity. Great example of visual rhetoric!

    This is very funny and also very truthful reworking of Coldplay's hit song "Viva La Vida" with new lyrics. It mainly focuses on why finding research on the web is not as useful as using libraries.

    This is real silly, but it did help me understand the concept of information literacy better.
