      Link 5:  http://realorsatire.com/worldnewsdailyreport-com/ This was chosen to show that there are many sites out there that are not as reliable as you may think. World News Daily Report sounds legit, but when on their page, you can soon start to realize that their journal is faux. Although the articles may be based off of something true, there is so much false information in it causing it to be a fake news article. This is why you need Google Custom Search Engines. They cut out the hassle of clicking on false information websites. How helpful and convenient is that? #lessonplan #websites

For Teachers: The Difference between Fair Use and Copyright ~ Educational Technology an... - 0 views

  •  
    This helps teachers show how to show students decide what is fairly used and copyrighted.
  •  
    The content of this site are crucial to understanding the basics of using a resource appropriately and correctly. The legal implications of using information/resources in papers and such is important for developing writers to understand. The webpage defines copyright, copyright infringement, and more related topics. Distinctions between plagiarism and copyrighting are specified, as these are often confusing concepts for students. Properly citing sources simply proves for effective research. Students will continually write papers with borrowed info., reference things, and etc. that deal with using resources, so it is important to express the various components associated with citations. This resource could prompt discussion over the do's and don't's of using resources; for example, "What might you use an outside resource for?"
