Cultural Differences

All around the world there are many different cultures. Every culture has differences in speech, rituals, education, body language, etc. If you travel, you should always be careful about what you say or do, because you may offend somebody of a different culture. For example, a hand gesture that means "two" or "peace" to American's can be very offensive to other cultures such as in England where it means "up yours". In Japan and Korea, a tip is considered an insult and if it is accepted then it is considered begging. But in the U.S. it is an insult to not leave a tip. In Holland, you should always use utensils when eating, even if it is only a piece of bread. You should always learn as much as possible about different cultures before you travel or else you may end up in a lot of trouble.

Social Media

Social media plays a big role in many peoples lives today. It allows us to communicate with others at any time, get information about other people, and many other useful things. But if you are not using social media correctly, it can have bad effects on your life. You must always be cautious about what you put online, because others can see things that you may not want them to see. People can also lie very easily in social media. Though social media may be fun, it can also have many downsides to it.

Website Validity

As “novice” researchers, we must ask two questions- Where do I begin my research, and once I find the site, how do I know if the information is reliable? When using the World Wide Web, we must become internet detectives. There are 5 steps to follow when evaluating sources on the World Wide Web. Step 1: Look at the URL- Is it a personal page or site? Look for an ISP. What type of domain does the site come from? Also look for country codes. Step 2: Scan the Page- Look for links such as “About Us”, “Philosophy”, “Background”, “Biography”, and a date for the last update. Who wrote the page? Where did the info come from? Are the links reliable-do they work? Step 3: Look for indicators of quality- Is it documented? Does the author provide a bibliography or source list? Step 4: Find out what others say about the site. Google the site, author’s name, and previous page. And Step 5: Does it all add up? Are you satisfied with the site? What is the tone of the site? What information does it supply? All of these things should be looked at when evaluating website validity.

Blog

"Blog" is short for web log. Blogs act like a public, online journal for users. They are a place where people can post things such as articles, pictures, and more. Unlike websites, blogs only have one page. They are also much easier to view and navigate than most websites. Blogs are always changing according to what you post on them.
