Evaluating sources 1
After watching the lecture video and discussing the questions, fill out the form below. This counts as a minor assignment, and maybe as an attendance check. This form requires more detailed answers and so this will be worth 20 points rather than 10 points. For some questions, you will need to go to the class website, https://www.enwiki.org/w/AEComp.
