Rollo, Welfare student:
|
"I found results of an interesting survey on euthanasia
for my assignment, on the internet.
When I showed my teacher she pointed out that it was
on the website of an organisation which supported euthanasia.
Was it reliable information, or could it be biased (facts changed to support one side of an argument only)? |
 |
However when we checked the web page, it showed that
the original source of the information was a social
science journal. This was a reliable source
(articles written by professional social scientists). So I went ahead and used the information in my assignment."
