Element Sway- Science9/COL

 

  • Questions I needed to research:
  • Who/when/how was platinum discovered?
  • What are interesting facts about platinum?
  • What is the melting point and boiling point of platinum?
  • What is platinum used for?
  • What is platinum’s periodic table information?

 

  • Digital tools I used:
  • Google
  • Citation Machine
  • Gale Engage
  • Pexels

 

  • The process and how I verified and cited my information:

I researched questions and went on websites to find information about my element. I then put all the information I collected into my own words and made sure to keep track of all the websites I used so then I could cite them. I found pictures off Sway using the image search and Pexels, but for pictures that I found online, I made sure to cite all my sources.

 

  • The process of completing this project and what I could have done better:

After doing this project I have learned a new way to finding reliable websites and images using the gale engage. I also learned that it is important to cite all images and sources that are used and knowing that I can get pictures that are free to use on Pexels, I will definitely be using it again for future schoolwork. Something that I could improve on is adding a bit more details into my content.
