1. I chose the book Literary Themes for Students: Race and Prejudice, 2007. I looked through the table of contents and chose the article Angels in America. This article could be used to show students how long prejudice has been in our country and how it has evolved from the beginning through the ages and the races. This article would serve to help open the eyes of students to see that prejudice is not just against different races, but also against different sexes and different levels of income people make. It would also be interesting to adults to read this.
2. I chose to look for an answer to the question What foods have zinc in them? There was wide range of books to use as answers, but there was not one book that specifically looked at specific minerals in foods. I was not impressed by the Listen feature. It did not read the text very well. It was too fast to concentrate on and it skipped some words. This would not be good feature for someone trying to write down information at the same time.
Hi, MickeyMouseFan. There are actually several sources in GVRL that tell what foods contain zinc, but you will have to skim the articles to find that information. The Gale Encyclopedia of Nursing and Allied Health is one example. Scroll down the page to "Natural Sources." If you did not look at and comment on others' blogs, I encourage you to do so. Many others in the challenge have commented on how much fun it is to see others' reactions to the same e-resource. Thanks for your comments.
