My favortie website that I like to use to look up new information is Google.  Everyone uses it but we have to be careful if the information that it is giving is true.  When I click on a url I check the bottom of the website to see if there is an About Us or Contact Us; if there not there then I move onto the next website because if the can't share that kind of informaiton then I won't use it.  Another way that I check it is check a different website and/or check a book and if it comes up again then I know that the infomation is valid because it comes up multiple times.  On my blog most of the information is true.  But I can't always be 100% sure because I am still a student and learning.  Also my blog more or less are opinions and what I think, so you can't always depend on my blog (or any) to give exact information as a book.  Although most blog most likely tell you the facts and aren't that opinionated.

I know that for me to get into the college of my dreams (NYU) won't be an easy task.  Having good grades and being in multiple after school activities is just the half of it.  I will also need to have good SAT scores.  In order to do this I will first of all need to study.  I won't be able to do this all on my own, so I know for a fact that I will need to get a tutor.  I will also need to make sure that I take all required classes in order to get in.  So I will make sure that I plan ahead for my remaining years in high school.

I find POGIL useful because when one person doesn't undestand the assignment then we ask our group memebers before asking the teahcer.  But at the same time I don't like POGIL becuase sometimes no one understands it and we have to constantly ask for help.  One way that I think that it can be improved is if at least two people in the group understands the work.  So that way they can explain it to the others and it would benefit us more.
