1. "Help for pregnant moms who can't work and need money." lovetoknow.com. Love to know. n.d. Sun. 30 January. 2011. 2. This website talks about how it has become much harder to pay for being pregnant and having a newborn child lately because of all the fees. You have to pay for doctors and bills and of course things to help raise your child and take care of it. A few of the programs listed that can help women who can not afford all of these expenses would include WIC which helps women out with food and HUD Rental assistance which can help them find a place to live. 3. This author is simply stating what sorts of programs would be best to look into if you were a woman who is pregnant and struggling financially. They put pictures of babies and a woman who was pregnant who looked stressed about what she was going to do. This shows us that this would be a potentially helpful website if you continue to read on and follow the instructions. This is definitely aimed at women because of the title, and other topics that are listed throughout the website. This is the perfect website for our group because Baby Steps is a program that helps out women that are in need of money or assistance. 4. I do not believe that this source was bias, because they only had one advertisement on their page and it had to deal with helping the mom out with cordblood. At first I looked for other advertisements to see if it would be a credible source and that was the only one that I saw so I thought that seemed pretty credible. 5. A few questions that I have is why they have a list of websites toward the top of the page that deal with medicaid for the disabled. I didn't really see how that applied to the main topic of the website. I also want to know why they had links that asked about getting on maternity leave early because I do not think that really applies.
Hi Dustin, Nicely chosen source. A few notes about the MLA citation: the main words should be capitalized, check for italics (the website for example), and no "Sun." I'm assuming there's no listed author. Your summary is solid, although it bleeds into your section 3 a little(and the reflection was coming into the bottom of 3). What other signs of credibility than ads did you notice? What in the text gives you clues about intention, bias, and usability? Overall, I like a lot of the moves you're making, so keep up the good work. Good luck figuring out the tabs issue.
