Reflection Paragraph on Sources
To get as much information you could possibly need for this project, you have to use many sources. Some sources may be biased, unbiased, credible, and not credible. Luckily for me, my sources were very credible. Each source that I went to, I thoroughly examined to see if it was credible enough for me to use. If the cite was not credible, then I did not use them and looked on to the next source. I had to make sure that the cite had an author, or was produced by an organization. The cites that had this and gave me the information I needed, got used throughout my project. My sources were all medical based. Either the Alzheimer's Association produced it, it had a credible author, or a medical group put it out. I found most of my early research at the MayoClinic website. This site is very credible because it is always getting updated by the doctors that work or have a partnership with this website. Many of my pictures also came from the medical based websites. Every question that I had going into this project, was answered in some way. There was only two or three that could not get answered. I believe that those questions were not answered because they have not done enough research to let the public know the answer to it. The websites that I used were not biased, they each gave a straight forward answer, that could be found on other websites as well. I believe that these website were the most helpful because they are constantly updated by doctors and people who are doing the research on Alzheimer's. They want to be sure that they put out all the right facts about this disease to let the public know what their options are, how to prevent it, what to look for, how to deal with it as a family and what to expect if you are diagnosed with it. I have learned a lot from my different sources and I hope to continue my research and learn more about this disease.
