FIVE FACTS FROM THE SOURCE (Embedded):
EX: The article cites Maria Nikolajeva, a professor of at Cambridge, as saying that Bella does not "in any way promote independent thinking or personal development" in women, instead portraying a woman "meek and willing to do anything for her vampire boyfriend" (POV).
the article talks  about how Samantha Brix went to a showing in an auditorium and asked the people who saw the documentry what there opinons were on it. a lot of people had some what the same reaction." handful of the nearly 70 community residents who filled the auditorium to view the movie commented and asked questions...Many agreed with a number of issues raised in the film"
there is one spacific girl who has a lot of thing going for her, Maddie Massa, what samantha does is talks about her first before she talk abou t what other people thought about the doc.
most of the people that she sees that went to the showing of the doc. were staff at different schools. teacher and principels had agree to what the doc. was showing."Marie Lindell, a parent and vice president of the Board of Education" and even higher positions.
im not sure about what viedo that they are talking about but Im going to find out so I can use It for one of my resouses, but what i get out of eveyone opinon is the face they they talk about how much homework we should have, "  Marie Lindell, a parent and vice president of the Board of Education, said the district should re-evaluate the type of homework that is assigned — homework she called rote and unnecessary in some cases." some teachers give out to much homework that make students stress out alot.
they also touch on the point of having to many tests on the same day. therefor it make students feel more strees out beacuse not only so they have to study for one test but many others on the same day," as a student slammed with multiple tests on the same day can trigger a great deal of stress." says one of the mothers that went to see the film. she sees that her children streee out alot and they get to a point were they dont care anymore.


 Summary of Source (Three-Four Sentences of the Who, What, Where, Why, and How in your own words. NO OPINION):
Samantha tries to get her point across to people who have something to do with education, wiether it has to be a mom or someone on the bord of education. She makes a good move by showing a film to many diffrenet people who have something to do with education. Many of the cited work that she has are from people who had a comment on the film that she showed.

Credibility of Source:
Author or Site: Who is the author? What training have they had? If there is no author, examine the site. What is the purpose of the site? Who funds the site?



The author is doing reserches on the topic "Do we put too much pressure on high school students?"
The purpose of the site, is a site were they show you news, sports, buisness about a community called " North Shore Sun"

Attachment: Does the author or site have anything to gain from writing this, or is it simply informative?

The author shows that she is doing reserch and seeing how other people are affeected on the topic that she chose.

Bias: Do you detect a bias (a favoring of either side) in the author's writing?

For this article I am for what she sasy that many young adults stress on alot of thing and eveything that she talks about is what I am going through.

References: Does the author cite references in the writing? If so, do these add or take away from the credibility?

She does cite alot of what people say, and what there opinon is on this topic. It adds to her crediblity beacuse some of the people that she cites are people that have a higher position in the bored of education.

Use of Source: How will you use this source in your project?

I would be able to use this source for this project to support me on the opinon that I have having to do with stress. With this article helps me out alot beacuse she also get opinons of other people who feel that same way as me. Like you say "negative effect on teenagers" having stress in there life.
