 I have asked my Year 11 Design and Visual Communication and Year 11 Visual Art classes the following questions about the literacy work that we have been doing this year so far.

Could you please explain why you put the answer to the last question.
( How easy do you think it is to find the research information on the internet?)
6 responses
I find it a bit difficult to understand information.
Because it gives a clear understanding of what the context of the task is.
I decided to rate the question a 3 out of 6 because most of the time the information your researching is a topic you've never heard about or don't know anything about it. But other then that I think its pretty easy to research information on the internet.
It's easy, but often the information isn't exactly what I need, can be overwhelming, or isn't reliable.
I think it's a bit hard to frind important online because it doesn't show me the right type of answer that I want.
Its easy to find the research information but sometimes its quite hard

Because information is widely accessible, search engines quickly provide relevant results and digital tools offer resources like academic papers, articles and databases instantly
Sometimes I understand some information, sometimes I don't understand some things that i find and also because theres no information.
Because of the task we are given, it becomes easy for me to incorporate some references into a project
There are some things that we look up and it’s not the right meaning or images.
It is not quite hard to find important online because if you put into google specifically what you want to search and it will pop up.
It’s kind a hard, but if you really know what to look for you can get it easily.
