Today we graded our own PWT tests. It was quite difficult for me to decide my own score but I tried to see my paragraphs from an objective point of view. After that Rab asked us a question; "Where can we find informations which have no bias or filter at all?" The answer was nowhere. I was a little shocked but Rab told us that there are some websites that have less bias and filter. These are the websites;

Indymedia Japan http://japan.indymedia.org/

Global Research.ca http://www.globalresearch.ca/

The Narco News Bulletin http://www.narconews.com/

The Electronic Intifada http://electronicintifada.net/

Fair http://www.fair.org/index.php?page=4

Information Clearing House http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/

Project Censored http://www.projectcensored.org/

In the 5th period we had some guests and we learned how to use sentenceworks and Criterion.

We used sentenceworks to find some mistakes in our first essays. I thought it was quite useful. After that we learned how to make presentations with google document. Rab's Banana presentation was really funny!
