Is That Website Good?

Is That Website Good?

I am planning to use World Book Online, Discovery, and National Geographic.
World Book Online is a good sites because it is not wrote by a 7th grade student, it is wrote by many professors.
I think Discovery is a good site because this site is about animals, and I'm researching about animals. And it is a channel on TV.
I think National Geographic is a god site because this site is about animals too. And National Geographic publication many magazine about animals and TV show.

??? WHY ???

Why is it important to have a clear explanation than a right answer in maths and science?

It is more important to have a clear explanation than a right answer because if you only has the right answer but you don't have the explanation, the teacher might think you copied other people' answer.
And if you has the explanation but you don't has the right answer. It is easier to know where did you do wrong.
And explanation can help you to remember how do you did that, so if you forgot how to do that problem you can go back and watch the explanation.

Thinking Skills

Learning Skills
One skill I use for thinking is break the information to different group.
I usually make a table on a piece of paper and write the information that I have already break it down.

Other thinking skill I use is opposite thinking.
I think in the opposite way.
Example.
Can we go when it's red light?
You can think in the opposite way. You know that you can go when it's green light. So green light' opposite is red light. And the opposite of go is stop.
So you can't go When it's red light.

Remembering
Remembering is remind the things that you learn.

Read, draw, find, list, label...
Videos, models, books, events...

Read the book or other things many time then you will remember it.

Creating
Creating id to invent something.

Synthesize, present, plan, create, deduce...
Article, radio, poem, show, story...

Use the skill and information that you learn before to create.
