Purdue OWL provides students with information and resources
on researching and determining what qualifies as a credible
source. It also provides them with easy-to-follow guidelines on
how to cite sources in styles such as MLA, APA, and Chicago.
Weebly
http://www.weebly.com
9-10.W.6
Weebly is an easy-to-use and free (minus premium features)
website builder that students can use to create pages where
they can post all sorts of writing. This can be done in many
formats such as a portfolio or a blog. Weebly allows direct
embedding of Word documents, making it easy for students to
have any existing work compiled and up on display on their site.
Editors can be added to a Weebly allowing for collaborative
blogging or other forms of writing.
Grammarly
https://www.grammarly.com/
9-10.L.1
Compared to something like Microsoft Word’s spelling and
grammar check, Grammarly is a spelling/grammar checker that
personalizes itself to the user’s own writing habits. Grammarly
will also explain the specifics behind grammatical, word choice,
and punctuation errors. It can be used on a web browser and in
Microsoft Office.
Google Scholar
https://scholar.google.com/
9-10.SL.2
Google Scholar is a search engine that primarily focuses on
presenting academic, credible resources instead of the immense
variety of sites that regular Google does. It can show how many
people have cited a source, who and where the piece was
published, and filters can be applied to only present documents
published in a certain time range.
