Use Technology to Publish and Cite Practice Test

Carlos and Keisha are comparing two ways to present information in their shared report about recycling at school.

Plan 1: They write three long paragraphs with no headings, no links, and no visuals. They submit it as a file attachment that no one can comment on.

Plan 2: They use headings, a short table to compare what can/can’t be recycled, and hyperlinks to the city recycling rules. They share the doc with commenting enabled and revise after peer feedback.

Which plan better meets W.7.6, and why?

Chen writes an informational article in Microsoft Word about earthquake safety. He uses a single font, no headings, and long paragraphs with no spacing. He does not use the built-in outline or styles, and he doesn’t include any hyperlinks. He uploads the file to the class website. He lists sources at the bottom like this:

1. www.ready.gov/earthquakes

2. USGS earthquake page

Which is the best critique of Chen’s technology use and citations?
