Chapter 4 is basically saying like whenever we write the paper, we need to prove our instinct whether we agree, disagree or both to let the reader know about where we are making a claim. Also, giving examples about how to write the agree or disagree in the passage and what we should need to put reason for those claims that we make. There are three ways to respond; 1) disagree and explain why 2)agree and with a difference 3)agree and disagree. what it means by when we disagree; we have to make sure we persuade our argument to the reader about why we disagree. when we agree, we need to tell the Reader about our experiences and sounds like more realistic. when we are in both, we need to make sure which points we agree and which points are not.

" For this reason, this chapter's advice applies to reading as well as to writing. Especially with difficult texts, you need not only to find the position the writer is responding to - the "They Say" but also determine whether the writer is agreeing with it, challenging it or some mixture of the two"(56)

"That is, the complexity,  and originality of your response are more likely to stand out and be noticed if readers have a baseline sense of where you stand relative to any ideas you've cited(57).

Chapter 5 is saying like most students are familiar with the sentence " Don't use I in essay" but the article said that it is okay use "I" because the readers might don't know "is that your opinions or other people's opinions" Therefore, "Differentiating your views from those of others, or even offering your own views in the first place."(72) then, there are examples to show how to write clearly "voice maker"

"Frequently, when students have trouble understanding difficult texts, it is not just because the texts contain unfamiliar ideas or words, but because the texts rely on subtle clues to let readers know when a particular view should be attributed to the writer or to someone else"(69).

Chapter 6 is saying like we all should have counterargument to make the essay sounds more interesting and more open minded.

"It suggests that even though most of us are upset at the idea of someone criticizing our work, such criticisms can actually work to our advantage(78)".

Chapter 7 talks about how "So What and Who Cares" important because when we didn't put it, it makes the essay looks less interesting and not too detailed about the topic. There are some template to grab reader's attention by suggesting the real problem in your claims. Also, we are basically trying to say is why we care about our claims and why the reader should care.

"The best way to answer such questions about the larger consequences of your claims is to appear to something that your audience already figure to care about. Whereas the "who cares?" question ask you to identify an interested person or group, the "so what?" question ask you to link your argument to some larger matter that the readers already deem important"(97).

My research paper is doing not okay yet because my topic is Myanmar Education so there are not a lot of people studying about that topic so it is kinda hard for me to what to focus on the paper. I don't have scholar source because most of the book only talks about Myanmar's Politics and Change in the Government.

Yes, I usually trust the websites that I visited. It is because I feel like no one gonna post or write blog when they don't know what they are talking. So, those websites can be used as opinions and arguments. but I never thought about beside Wikipedia, there are a lot of untrustworthy sources out there.

This article is basically saying that whatever we see in the website, we shouldn't rely on them until this sources are reliable because For example, Wikipedia has unlimited permission to edit the information however we want. Therefore, this can lead to our misinterpretation with new wrong perspectives. Also, we should be the evidences that we claim. This is important because if there is no evidences,  our claims will be untrustworthy and makes us look like judging other people's view points. We also have open minded when we are looking at other people's claim because we all have different perspectives based on what we believe. 

This article also talks about young people are not good at researching because we believe in things easily and not researching enough about where this information really came from. Every students use INTERNET to research. This becomes to normal in these days. As this becomes normal, a lot of sources are available for us and it is really easy to find out. However, we don't know for sure where this info came from? They didn't give us enough details to trust this website or not.  There are a lot of sources but it is really difficult to find where the information came from and should we trust them.

"It was obviously never the case that just because something was printed meant that it was true"(14).

"The higher up in a Google search, the more credible the entry. Sometimes students remarked that they considered the qualifications of the author before believing what they found, but in no instance of the screen captures could the researchers find evidence that author credibility steered students’ decisions"(15). 

“The teaching of history should convey only facts and be free from political motives, personal opinions, biases, propaganda and other common tactics of distortion. Every claim that is made about history should also be accompanied by documentation proving its basis"(16).

"Simple questions. Who owns a site? Who links to it? Forget about power drills and pneumatic nail guns. Can we start with a hammer and a saw? "(16)

I would rather to research the topic that I am interested because I feel that it is easier for me to do that. Interviewing sounds fun but it is more harder than reading scholarly sources because we need to meet someone and give more time to them and maybe or not we will get enough information.
