We learned the way to know the quality of
the Wikipedia sites in the first place, and also we learned the way to cite by
using zotero.
1. I found “Attachment Theory,” which has
FA rank. Because I wrote about child abuse in last essay, this site is highly
connected to my previous topic. I did not know that we could confirm whether
the site of Wikipedia is reliable or not. And at the same time, I realized that
the sites which has high rank like FA is so few that we cannot too much rely on
most of them. That’s why many teachers don’t like it, though we cannot do it in
terms of other websites, too, because we don’t know who is editing them.
2. Regarding In-text citation and works
cited, zotero worked so well that I simply thought it is really useful tool.
Because I always have a trouble with citation, I am sure that it will be
helpful next time. But I had a mistake and I send it to members before I
completed it, so I sent it again. (sorry for bother my group members)

Hey Yuka! I just remembered that one of my friends edited the wikipedia before because the information they had was apparently wrong. I agree with you that the wikipedia can be reliable with the FA system they have, but at the same time, it can be unreliable because we do not know who the editors are. It would be cool if I find your name someday at the editor's name section! Have a great week!
返信削除Hi Yuko! Thank you for commenting me. Yeah... we need to be careful not to be deceived by comparing wikipedia with other sites, for example. Wikipedia is useful , so I always searched the meanings of some words by using it, though.
返信削除I was surprised the quickness of your response! haha Have a nice day!
Hi again Yuka!
返信削除"Attachment theory" sounds so interesting. I've heard about your essay topic, and I'm glad it turned out to be a great one!
I also had trouble finding the FA rank pages as well. Especially, there are so few articles for current issues, since my topic is about Kevin Rudd's apology for Stolen Generations, which is an issue of the day.
However, all of the techniques we learn in this class are useful! We can help each other to use this more quickly.
Thank you for reading and have an awesome day!
Hi, Shiho! Thank you for commenting me. Yeah, finding FA articles is really difficult. I know you wrote an interesting essay, so I want to read your essay! Also I agree that we learned useful tools again. I hope we can use them appropriately and use time effectively. Have a nice day!
