pH -- Water properties - 0 views

  •  
    United States Geological Survey (USGS)'s article discusses the definition of pH, its importance, measurement, pH in water quality and pH variation across the US. It's purpose is to get an understanding of what pH is and how it plays a role in the US. The source proved very useful, providing accurate information (some information came from a 2002 country pH survey!).

Brain Parts Overview - 0 views

    The source different from other sources I've used because it is actually a slideshow, not an article (which is helpful in the sense that you do not have to read a lot, it is very short and concise information). The slideshow gives plenty of information about the five senses of the body and the various organs related to those senses. I took notes on the entire slideshow. This source is useful because, as I mentioned before, it is written out in the simplest form possible and most important terms are highlighted. This source helped me understand the fundamentals of the senses and how they operate in the brain. I will use this source from time to time when I need to reference the information on the senses.

    This is the website for the New England Young Writers Conference. I has information about the conference, how to apply, the cost, and where it's located. I used this website to apply for the conference. It was easy to navigate and I found the application form quite easily. THis source was very helpful because after applying, I was accepted into the conference. I believe that it will help me develop my writing skills. This source opened up new possibilities for me in terms of exploring my creative writing skills. The purpose of this website is to give the readers more information about the New England Young Writers Conference.

Anatomy of the Brain Quiz - 0 views

    This source is an online quiz. I found it helpful in terms of studying and memorizing the different sections of the brain. Of each question there is a diagram of the brain labeled with numbers and the objective is to match the numbers to the corresponding area of the brain. This is different from other sources I have used because the source is an online quiz, not an article. I still learned a lot from it though. This source has helped me to realize that the brain is quite complicated and that it is time consuming to memorize the different parts of the brain. I would highly recommend this article because it is fun to take this quiz and see what you know (or don't know) about the human brain.
