Source Evaluation Worksheet
Part I: Topic
My topic will be on the capabilities of the internet. the concept behind this is to educate myself and more importantly, the dozens of americans that have no idea how the internet works or even, what it does. My idea is simple. I will be giving a clear vision of what the internet is capable of. Not so specific that my project will go on forever but just enough so that it will get the essential information across. I believe that this is a great topic/ idea in that i can use my project for later speeches to places across the world. Or, maybe just to local senior citizen nursing homes and elementary schools.
