Sources
Valid-actually supporting the intended point or claim
Reliable-able to be trusted
Accurate-correct
I'm using the National Bureau of Economic Research.
I know that it's valid because it's supporting other evidence I've learned. It's reliable because it's a government source and is reviewed by people. I don't know for a fact that it's accurate, but it's backed up by many sources and statistics.

Research Step 1
So far, I have thought about what I was going to do for my honors challenge paragraph. I was going to do something on power and money, but I really want to do something on serial killers. In history, we haven't done anything on the project yet, but next class I think we will. I don't have a thesis statement or any other preparation because I just changed my topic.
