Writing Generators - 0 views

  •  
    I used this article because I was looking for some inspiration to write a play. Turns out, this website was the just the thing I needed. The random generators are really helpful when you can't think of something interesting for a character you are writing about. There are plot, character, title, and name generator included in this website. I used these generators to come up with character names and even some different interesting things about my characters. They are super helpful when you are stuck or your story needs a lift! This is very different from other sources I have use because it is not an article, but a generator. I would highly recommend this source!

10 Amazing Things People's Brains Have Done - HowStuffWorks - 0 views

  •  
    The article goes over ten amazing things peoples brains have done; The ten things have no connection to each other, but they all are very interesting things that brains have done. For example, the article has one part of the ten devoted to a man named Howard Engel who could write full book, but couldn't read!!!! AHHHH, how weird. The purpose of the article is simple; To go over ten amazing things people's brains have done. The article doesn't cover any issues really, except for one of the people who died from over exhaustion because he didn't sleep for 6 months; Under sleeping is an issue these days, but this part of the article didn't even mention undersleeping being a problem, so no, the article doesn't tackle any issues. If someone asked me what the article is about, I would tell them that the article is about ten amazing things peoples brains have done, plain and simple.

Amazing Brain Facts, Videos About the Brain - Posit Science - 0 views

  •  
    The purpose of this article is to go over 5 amazing brain facts. The writer of the article does do something that I personally am a big fan of, which is instead of writing about 5 interesting brain facts, they have short videos describing every brain fact in moderate detail. The main points of the article is to showcase 5 amazing brain facts and talk about why they are amazing, such as explaining why exercise is good for your heart AND your brain. The only issues that are covered are about why people should exercise regularly, and the article talks about memory loss, and why it doesn't have to happen to you; No other "issues" are covered. If some lady or some gentleman were to ask me "What is this article about?", I would tell them that it is about what the title says it is about; 5 amazing brain facts, plain and simple.

How to Paint a Mural: Learn About Mural Supplies, Preparation and Mural Techniques - 0 views

  •  
    For this "How to Paint a Mural" site, I found a lot of helpful information about what materials are needed, what type of paint I should use (which I already knew from Ms. Cleary), and what techniques I could use to paint the mural. Even though they used specific brands as some examples of paint brands, this site also gave some examples overall. Besides all of the mural information, there was other drawing and painting advice that I might want to look at another time, including different media. This site seems interesting for people that are interested in art. Not only does this site have great information, it also isn't boring looking, and you can find what you are looking for. I'm glad I looked at this site even if I saw tips and information that I already knew.

    The purpose of this website is to learn and explore the science behind how "everyday objects" work. This website is also great because you can explore the different parts of the website to find a topic that interests you. It is such an engaging site for that reason because even though you are able to read about a topic that interests you, at the same time you are learning about the science behind your interest!

NEWTON: Ask a Scientist - 0 views

  •  
    This site allows you to look at hundreds of questions written by other people. There are many categories of questions, everything from Biology, to Mathematics, to computers, to Physics. Each question is answered by an expert in that field, and you can create your own questions if you are curious about something. Each question can have many replies, so you can see all sides to the answer, and it gives you a deeper understanding of the topic. I find this a useful source because it gives you interesting information by showing you popular questions. I find this site reliable because it is a government site with college professors responding, and because the information they give is consistent with what I get if I research outside of the site. I would recommend this to anyone doing scientific research for school, or to anyone interested in science in general.

    Take a look at this interesting set of Siamese gray whale twins. This could be the first set of Siamese twins ever for whales. Was it because of pollution, or just a odd occurrence.

    This website was helpful when I started out. It was one of the first ones that I used and I used it to help me figure out what kinds of genres for fiction writing there were out there. This website helped me narrow down what kinds of genres that I was interested in and then lead me to researching more about the ones I liked.
