Spanish site: - 0 views

    Summarize: The main points of this website are different for each chapter. Each book chapter has many online activities to help you cement the Spanish into your brain. The purpose of this website is to practice Spanish through a series of different activities; depending on which lesson that you are on there are certain practices that you can do. There are also many topics depending on the lesson that you are working on practicing, for example in lesson 5A: birthdays and families are the two things to study. This lesson is all about teaching people how to talk about specific family members, how old they are and what things you would see/ have at a party. This website includes lots of information on speaking Spanish. If you are interested in culture that I would look elsewhere, but if you have a Realidad's book along with the book codes found in each lesson, than this is a very practical website for studying and practicing your vocabulary. Review and access: Phschool is a super useful source when studying or practicing. There is a test preparation for each lesson and I use it to see if I have understood all the vocab in each chapter. Other sources haven't been as helpful to me, because they don't follow the Realidad's lessons exactly and don't have all the concepts in our chapters. The information given is definitely reliable because it goes along with a Spanish textbook that our Spanish teacher from Spain recommends using to study. I would recommend this website to anyone who is learning Spanish, because it has helped me learn mine. In the beginning of the lesson everything is fairly easy and as you work your way through the practice the Spanish gets harder until you eventually get to the test preparation. Reflect: This source is very helpful and I continue to use it. Each practice takes between 1-10 minutes depending on how fluent you are at your Spanish. This source has helped to direct my studying and practicing so that I have less to do later on and mor

Soldier's Heart: Literary Men, Literary Women, and the Great War - 0 views

  •  
    This was a work that I used for an American Studies paper. It was about how women gained power during World War One, and how they expressed that power through writing. I was able to access this article through Ms. Burdett's JSTOR account, which was a very useful website because you had access to work that wasn't published on the broader internet and you could keep it all bookmarked together. I knew this was reliable because it was associated with a college, and the author used in-text citations so I could double check her sources if I wanted to. However, it was biased because the author was writing a persuasive piece. She started the work with a debatable thesis and gave evidence throughout the article to support it. This was one of the most challenging articles I've read because it was written at a college level, but the information was at a higher level as well. The author went very in-depth, and while the sheer amount of information was sometimes hard to sort through, it gave me better details in the end. The only drawback I would tell someone else who wanted to use this source was that it was on JSTOR, so I needed Ms. Burdett's password and permission whenever I wanted to use it.

Pittsburgh mechine - 0 views

  •  
    This webpage explains how a Pittsburgh machine works. The machine uses a series of rollers to create a locking mechanism to put duct together. This website has similar information as other websites, thus it is legitimate. It was very helpful to me because I use a Pittsburgh machine every day and now I understand more fully how it works.

Woodworker's Journal | Woodworking | How To | Free Plans - - 1 views

  •  
    This site offers a large variety of woodworking recipes for a very low cost. It gives me ideas and designs to work on with no design required prior. It gives me the ability to go into the shop whenever I want and work on a project. This source is definitely a helpful one due to its low cost and bountiful. It sells complete recipes with cost ranging from $1 to $50, a fair price for allowing to skip the day long planning period of projects. Compared to other sources this one rates fairly average and does not necessarily wow me. I would recommend this to anyone looking to do woodworking, but doesn't like sketching models and plans. In conclusion I will use this source to get cheap plans for small work projects and slow days. It didn't really effect my learning but it certainly gave me a good amount of resources.

    It's fantastic for many things: interviews for your website, wonderful ambient sounds, music you've made, even a full-on radio show. You can use it for reporting, storytelling, education, or as an online dictaphone. Audioboo works on ios, android and nokia devices or via the web, and soon blackberry and windows 8.

    This tool is great to help students with their creative writing. The site provides visually stunning images with a bank of words for writing a poem, descriptive paragraph, or caption. Lists of words are categorized by verbs, nouns, adjectives, adverbs, and with an additional universal list. The work is public, supports vocabulary building, and helps with word relationships and nuances in word meanings.

    This site is useful because kombucha, a fermented cultured tea, is manufactured in Bristol, Vt and Aiden works there. He works mostly bottling and labeling all bottles they produce. He sometimes serves customers from the taps on site. Customers come in and refill their growlers there because its cheaper than buying it at a retail stores. This site offers contact information for the owners and crew, information about how they make kombucha and where they get there ingredients from.

Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) - Antidepressant - 0 views

  •  
    This was such a great video. It showed how neurotransmitters work and how they are if someone has depression, it then showed how serotonin should affect the cells if it works correctly. Short video, only a minute and 25 seconds but it had a lot of great information and was well explained.
