Unit 3 Discussion

Instructions

Think of a health issue that interests you. Then, go to the following government websites and explore each website to find information about the health topic you have chosen. 
(You may need to adjust your topic if you do not get results—that’s okay.)  Explore each website. 

In your initial post, fully compare and contrast your search results.

  • What kind of information did each website have? 
  • How was the information similar? How was it different? 
  • What are you able to infer about the purpose or mission of each of these organizations? 
  • What did you learn about the topic you did not previously know?
  • What surprised you or seemed unexpected?
