Day 1 of EIR

First lesson of effective internet research(EIR)... i thought the subject was very much commonsensical at first because everyone uses the internet and I don't need to have another lecture on how to use the internet.However, there was more to it, lecture 1 touch on the different classification of websites. Different classification includes personal to institutional, from research and academic information to business information. Each resource has a different purpose, whether is it informative, business, advocacy, entertainment or even news. This classification is very important as it shows whether the content is a reliable source.

A list of topics were given to us on the later part of the lesson. We have to pick 1 and research on it. I chose "discuss the role of the architectural industry in the global go-green movement". I've always had a keen interest in architecture
(i am from environment design) . Alright shall not elaborate any further.

bye.
