3rd GRADE
BUILDING A GOVERNMENT SYSTEM
LESSON 4: I AM A CYBERSECURITY ATTORNEY
THE LESSON MISSION
People use websites to get information. This year, you will begin to use information from websites to make slideshow presentations and write reports.
When you use information from a website, you have to give credit to the person who provided you with that information. Credit is giving recognition to a person that created something. You give credit to someone else because you respect the hard work they put into it and you want others to know their hard work contributed to your slideshow or report. |
How to Give Credit
To give credit, you must list the author, the title, the website name, and the web address for all the websites you used at the end of your slideshow or report. This is called a works cited page. Let's look at the example work cited page and the websites it lists.
The trickiest part to creating a works cited page is finding the information you need to give credit properly. Now, we are going to look at each website on the works cited page. Let's see if we can find the author, title, website name, and website address for all three sites.
Where To Look
The website title, name, and address are easy to find.
The author is a little harder to find. Keep in mind the author doesn't have to just be one or two people. It can be a group or organization as well. Most authors will be listed at the bottom near the copyright or on an about us page.
Your Turn
Now its your turn. Write a works cited page on paper for the two websites below. When time is called, we will check your answers.
