Dear Researchers,

Yesterday we learned about evaluating the credibility of the sources we read. I can’t think of a more important thing I will teach you all year.

There are all sorts of people out their vying for your attention. Some of them want to convince you to believe crazy things. And these people have YouTube channels, twitter feeds, blogs, and newspapers!

You have to be able to decide if these sources are credible or not. You have to learn how to test their claims by comparing them with other sources. You have to figure out for yourself what you’re going to believe.

Sincerely,

Mr. Heimbuck
