Health issues are among the most important topics in our society. Our doctors tell us how to stay healthy. They help us recover when we are sick. Health officials provide information about disease or flu outbreaks. Researchers test new treatments for illnesses. Every day, there is new information about advances in science and medicine.
Learning about health issues can be challenging. There is a lot of information about many different health topics. Sometimes, health information can change quickly. For example, the number of people who get sick from certain diseases changes every day. The types of treatments that people use to fight diseases changes, too. Often, the internet can provide the most current facts and information about health issues.
To find information on the internet, you use search terms. Search terms are key words that you enter into a search engine to conduct an online search for information. The key words you use determine the information that will result from your search. To create and use search terms effectively, your search words need to be specific. For example, suppose that you wanted to find facts about a recent flu outbreak. You could enter the search terms flu outbreak facts. The search terms are specific to the information you want to find. As a result, the information provides useful and relevant facts and details.
When you research information about health topics, you need information from reliable sources. Most national health agencies have government websites that end in .gov. For example, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or CDC, has a government website. Its website is devoted to providing current, reliable information about health issues. You can include .gov or CDC in your search terms. Doing this will help you to make sure that the information from your search is trustworthy. Using search terms effectively will help you to find health information that is useful and reliable.

Read the prompt on page 4 about reading the novel Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. Then use what you have learned in the lesson to gather relevant information about the artist who created the illustrations. Find information form at least 3 credible print and digital sources. For each source, do the following:
Identify it as a print or digital source.
Provide a citation.
Write a sentence to explain why the source is credible.
You are reading the novel Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, by Lewis Carroll. You really like the illustrations in the novel. You decide to conduct research to find out more about the artist who created the illustrations in the original publication of the novel.
Think of an item that you would like to buy as a gift for a friend or family member. Gather relevant information about the item from at least three print and digital sources. Write an explanation that tells whether you would buy the item and why (or why not). Explain how you decided whether the sources were credible and include citations for them. Finally, tell how your research helped you to make this financial decision
New ideas are changing the world every day. Some people are developing clothes that can measure your activity levels. Others are developing cell-sized robots that can fight cancer. Still, others are developing massive information systems that could change the way people use the internet. Research helps you learn more about innovations like these that are changing the world.
Innovations are new ideas, products, or ways of doing things. You might research the innovations that you find most interesting and then share what you learn. You can quote facts and details about the innovation in your writing. When you quote a source, you copy the author’s exact words, as in this example:
In a 1929 interview, Albert Einstein said, “Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.”
You also can paraphrase information from your research. When you paraphrase, you express the meaning of the information in your own words. Paraphrasing is restating someone else’s ideas in a different way:
Albert Einstein believed in the power of imagination. In a 1929 interview, he said that there is a limit to knowledge but that imagination is limitless—able to be found anywhere on earth.
You use other people’s words and ideas in your writing when you quote and paraphrase information. It is only fair, therefore, to give credit to the author or source of the information. Doing this avoids plagiarism. plagiarism is claiming another person’s ideas or information as one’s own. Instead, include citations—that is, identify the person or organization whose words or ideas you are using.
For example, suppose that you are writing about the innovations of Albert Einstein. You should cite each source that you use for information. You should provide a citation that identifies the author or organization in parentheses. You also should include a citation on a separate works cited page. The following example presents information that was paraphrased from a NASA website. It includes a citation in the text and an entry for a works cited page.
Albert Einstein’s work contributed to the field of physics. In 1921, he won the Nobel Prize for Physics for his theories about light and energy. He proposed that light was made up of energized particles called photons. (NASA)

“Life can be complicated. However, achieving your goals doesn’t need to be difficult. The key to success is clearly identifying your goals. According to surveys, many people feel overwhelmed by all the things they need to do each day. This can be avoided by deciding what is most important to you. Make a list of the goals you most want to achieve. Then identify the specific steps you will take to achieve them. Keep your steps simple. Next, create a schedule. Identify specific days and times when you will accomplish each step. If you complete the steps that you outline in your schedule, you will achieve your goals. Success can be just that simple!”
Another speaker presents a different argument about managing goals and time.
Speaker 2:
“Students today have more demands on their time than ever before. They must manage their obligations at school and at home. Students must also manage the information they receive through technology. In today’s society, achieving goals depends on a student’s ability to limit distractions. Most distractions come in the form of internet use. According to a survey conducted by the Pew Research Center, about half of teens aged 13 to 17 have a smartphone or have access to one. The survey also showed that 45 percent of teens are online almost constantly. Another 44 percent report going online several times a day. This means students are often distracted from their studies by social media, texting, or internet browsing. To manage their goals and time, students must identify a time each day devoted specifically to achieving their goals. All distractions must be avoided during this time. Trying to study or accomplish tasks while also engaging in online activities is not productive.
Speaker 2 (continued):
"Research was conducted at Stanford University to learn more about students who regularly multitask with media, or who do several online activities at once. Results showed that students who multitask could not perform as well as those who complete one task at a time. The study showed that the media multitaskers could not pay attention or recall information as well as other students. The message from research is clear. The most effective way for students to achieve their goals is to provide time to do their work without any online distractions.”
This speaker makes a different claim and provides different evidence and reasoning. Each presentation provides useful information about managing goals and time. However, each speaker provides a different argument for how people can best achieve their goals. You can evaluate each speaker’s claim, evidence, and reasoning to determine which approach would be more helpful to you.

How does the reasoning of the first speaker compare to the reasoning of the second speaker?
Do you feel as if you never have enough time? Many students feel this way. Homework and studying can be time consuming. Activities related to sports or family events also take time. Balancing the demands of school and other activities can be challenging.
People of all ages struggle with managing their time. Because of this, many groups provide presentations focused on goals and time management. The presentations try to help people achieve their goals and manage their time effectively. However, speakers may make different claims about the best ways for people to manage their time. A claim is a statement that presents the speaker’s opinion on a topic. The speakers then use reasoning—an explanation that offers reasons why a claim is valid—to support the claim. That reasoning will include evidence, or facts and details that support the reasons. Speakers may provide different evidence and even different reasoning in a presentation, depending on their claim.
When you evaluate a speaker’s reasoning, you assess the speaker’s explanation of why the reasons support the claim and why the evidence supports the reasons. Compare these excerpts from two presentations on managing goals and time.

Reread the excerpts on page 12. Write a paragraph that evaluates the reasoning each speaker uses. Tell how strongly the reasoning explains the evidence and support the claims in each presentation. Then, identify which presentation you found to be more convincing or helpful. Explain.
Speakers often present arguments in their speeches. Their goal is to persuade the audience to agree with their claim—their position on a topic. They sometimes will want the audience to take action, as a result. The speaker will argue that the claims are true, using evidence as proof. Evidence is information that supports a claim. Speakers can use various types of evidence to support their claims. Here is an example.
Claim: People should eat many vegetables and fruits each day to reduce their chances of having serious health problems.
Evidence: According to the CDC, a daily diet rich in vegetables and fruits can lower a person’s risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and some kinds of cancer.
In the example, the claim is supported by convincing evidence. For evidence to be convincing, it must be relevant and sufficient. Evidence that is relevant is directly related to the claim. Evidence that is sufficient is enough evidence to meet the purpose of the argument.
You can evaluate a speaker’s evidence by determining whether it offers relevant, sufficient support for the speaker’s claim. In the example above, the evidence is relevant. It is directly related to the claim. The CDC fact directly relates to why eating many vegetables and fruits can reduce people’s chances of having serious health problems. The evidence is sufficient. It is enough to fully support the claim. It tells why people should eat many vegetables and fruits each day. It also identifies the serious health problems a diet of vegetables and fruits can help to avoid. Based on this evaluation, you can say the evidence is convincing. It is relevant and sufficient.
Claim: People should eat many vegetables and fruits each day to reduce their chances of having serious health problems.
Evidence: According to the USDA, people with a daily diet high in dietary fiber from vegetables may have a lower risk of heart disease.
In this example, the evidence is relevant but not sufficient. The evidence is relevant because it directly relates to the claim. The USDA fact supports the idea that people who eat vegetables reduce their chances of having a serious health problem. However, it is not sufficient. It supports only part of the claim. It does not mention whether consuming fruit reduces the chance of health problems.
Claim: People should eat many vegetables and fruits each day to reduce their chances of having serious health problems.
Evidence: According to the CDC, very few Americans eat the recommended daily amount of vegetables and fruits.
In this example, the evidence is neither relevant nor sufficient. The evidence is a fact about eating vegetables and fruits. However, it is not relevant. It does not relate to how eating vegetables and fruits reduce chances of having serious health problems. The evidence is also not sufficient. It does not provide enough evidence to support the claim.
When you hear a speaker present an argument, think carefully. Evaluate the evidence the speaker presents. Decide whether it is relevant and sufficient. If it is, then you will know the speaker has provided convincing evidence.
Directions - Read the passage. Summarize what you read below.
Claim: The U.S. transportation system is essential to the country because it serves millions of people and supports the economy.
Evidence: Each year, more than 300 million Americans use the U.S. transportation system.
Read each claim and its supporting evidence. Complete the sentences to explain whether each claim is relevant and sufficient for all 3 examples.
In the United States, citizens who are at least 18 years old have the right to vote. Voting is expressing a choice in an election. Voting allows us to choose our leaders. Voting also allows us to make decisions on many local, state, or national issues. It gives us a voice in who runs the government and what the government does.
No one is required to vote. Voting is a right and a privilege. In each election, many people go to the polls to cast their vote. Many people do not. Before elections, voting advocates often encourage people to vote. Many make speeches to persuade people to get to the polls. The speakers use evidence to convince people their claims about voting are correct. Evidence that is convincing is relevant and sufficient. Evidence that is relevant is directly related to the claim. Speakers that provide sufficient evidence provide enough evidence to meet the purpose of the argument. People can evaluate a speaker’s evidence by determining whether it is relevant and sufficient for supporting the claim. Read this speech presented to potential voters:
"Are you eligible to vote? If so, what are you doing on Election Day? If you’re not sure, this message is for you. Vote! Our country is facing big issues. It needs you to weigh in on what it should do. It needs you to decide who will lead us into the future. It needs you to help decide this country’s future. Everyone should vote to shape America’s future because voting is easier now than ever before.
"Will you be out of town on Election Day? Do you have a job that makes it difficult to get to the polls? No problem! People have many voting options if they can’t get to the polls on Election Day. You can cast your ballot early. In many states, you can vote by mail. As long as you are a registered voter, you don’t even need to be in the country to vote. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, about 40 percent of voters used an alternative method of voting in the 2018 elections."
"Will you be in town on Election Day, but you need a ride? No worries! Many companies and public transportation groups help voters get to the polls. The Pew Research Center found that a lack of transportation was among the top ten reasons why people don’t vote. Companies and communities took action. Many cities across the nation provide free train or bus rides to and from the polls. Some transportation companies, such as Uber and Lyft, are working with nonprofit voting organizations to help voters. These and other transportation companies provide discounted rides to the polls. Some also offer free rides to those who need them. In addition, there are individuals and groups in many communities who offer free rides to voters who otherwise would not be able to cast a ballot."
"Why are there so many options for voting and transportation to the polls? The answer is simple. Voting is important, and everyone’s vote matters. Be sure to cast your vote on Election Day!”"
Speeches like these are common as an election draws near. Many people speak out to encourage as many people as possible to exercise their right to vote.

In the United States, citizens who are at least 18 years old have the right to vote. Voting is expressing a choice in an election. Voting allows us to choose our leaders. Voting also allows us to make decisions on many local, state, or national issues. It gives us a voice in who runs the government and what the government does.
No one is required to vote. Voting is a right and a privilege. In each election, many people go to the polls to cast their vote. Many people do not. Before elections, voting advocates often encourage people to vote. Many make speeches to persuade people to get to the polls. The speakers use evidence to convince people their claims about voting are correct. Evidence that is convincing is relevant and sufficient. Evidence that is relevant is directly related to the claim. Speakers that provide sufficient evidence provide enough evidence to meet the purpose of the argument.
