Technology is clearly bringing a world of facts and information literally to our fingertips. However, it is an unedited world. More than ever, readers need critical reading.

Here is a critical reading site, beginning with an exerpt from Avi’s Nothing But the Truth.

If this or any other answer to your question helps you resolve this issue, please select a “best answer.” This motivates people to help you and rewards their research in your behalf.

As a school teacher who has taught reading for 17 years, this is a really relevant question. With electronic media we are reading a vast amount of information over the internet. It is essential that we are able to discern fact from opinion or fiction masquerading as fact. The Wickepedia web site is an excellent example.

Good luck with your school essay. Birdie
