Lesson 3
The document discusses how to identify reliable sources on the internet. It states that all students should be able to identify reliable sources, most students should also be able to explain why they are reliable, and some students should be able to teach others how to identify reliable sources. It provides examples of web address endings that indicate a reliable source such as .com, .org, .co.uk, .gov, and .ac.uk. Unofficial websites without these endings may be unreliable because they could be biased or outdated. Students are asked to evaluate website reliability based on these criteria.
Hypothesis presentation.
A hypothesis aims to be proven or disproven through research. If the information collected agrees with the hypothesis, then it is proven as true. However, if the data does not align with the hypothesis, then it has been disproven as false. The research determines whether the hypothesis is supported or contradicted by the evidence.
Presenting information presentation.
This document discusses different ways to present information visually, including tally charts, key points, bar charts, line graphs, and percentages. Tally charts can record responses to questions, using lines to show answers. Key points from sources should be highlighted and condensed into bullet points. Bar charts or line graphs can then display tallied answers or trends over time. Percentages can also represent parts of a whole, such as the proportion of people answering a question in the same way.
Hypothesis task presentation
The document discusses hypotheses and how to research them. A hypothesis is a statement that can be proved or disproved through research techniques like questionnaires, interviews, and analyzing newspapers/magazines. Examples of hypotheses given are that all people over 12 own mobile phones and that mobile phones are dangerous to health. The document also covers keywords, wildcards, and advanced searches to help narrow down search results on the internet.
Gathering information presentation.
This document discusses different methods for gathering information, including questionnaires, interviews, newspapers/magazines, and the internet. Questionnaires allow collecting people's opinions through a list of questions, and can provide statistical data. Interviews involve real conversations using open or closed questions. The internet provides a wide range but unreliable information must be avoided. Newspapers/magazines supply real examples for research topics.
Fact or opinion presentation
Validity refers to how well a test measures what it claims to measure. Reliability is about a test consistently measuring something in the same way. Bias can occur when a test is designed or used in a way that is unfair to certain groups and favors others.
