ETHICS

Dear Diary, I feel like I'm going mad. So many of our college students don't understand that they can't use just any website in their papers. The information must be accurate! What's the POINT of using a website that references "scientists" or "experts" instead of a name you can verify? Similarly, some students think they will SHINE if they only use .org sources. Someday, I hope they come 'ROUND to verify the expertise of the source.

Check the claim on each link, then drag the correct shape to its corresponding website.

1. The Problem With Claiming We Have "12 Years to Climate Breakdown" __________

2. Scientists at Sloan Kettering discover mRNA inactivates tumor-suppressing proteins, meaning it can promote cancer __________

3. Global Trends In Nicotine __________

(Tip: Search the website organization name)

Congratulations, you found the next clue! But don't get too confident. To find a better source, sometimes the smartest thing you can do is google keywords from the claim. You have been warned!
