Pro/Con Debate Project: Home

Best Practices:

• Create a new project in your mybib.com account as soon the project is assigned.
• Add each source into mybib as you find it and you will have a list of all your sources so you will not forget or lose any.

Searching in Google?
Remember you are looking for Trustworthy, Relevant, Accessible and Current (T. R. A. C.) information when searching for sources using Google. Ask yourself these questions about any websites before using the information for your debate.

To limit your results to a .gov or .edu website, type your search this way:
site:gov lower drinking age
or
site:edu safe injection sites
