Finding help on the internet

There is a vast amount of information on the internet, and given how complicated diagramming can be at times it would be a shame not to use available resources when we run into problems. If you miss a class because you are sick, you might want to reinforce your knowledge of diagramming, and possibly add to it. If you miss a moment of class because you were unavoidably distracted, you might want to reinforce your knowledge of diagramming, and possibly add to it. Which of these three sites is most helpful in brushing up on what you already know? What about the site makes it so helpful? Which of these sites is least helpful in learning more about the topic? Why do you think that this is the case? Which of these sites would you recommend to a friend that you know is stressed about studying for the next knowledge evaluation? Why is this site the best for preparing for a test or quiz?

I think site one would be the most helpful when brushing up on skills I already now. This site would be helpful because it uses words in bold and examples. I think site three would be the least helpful because it was hard to understand and not very clear. Site three also tells about the history of diagramming sentences rather than actually how to do it. I would recommend site one to a friend that was stressed about studying for the next knowledge evaluation. I would recommend this site because it gives you sentences to practice on and explains the process step by step.

I think that site 1 is most helpfull for brushing up on what you already know because it gives you step by step of what to do for diagraming. But site 2 I would recomend to a friend because it gives more information than just diagraming. Site 3 I would not recamend because it gives other peoples ideas and most likley they are not correct.

I think that site number two is the most helpful when studying for a test for two reasons. I would use site two because in the web address the site is .edu. This means it is from a college or school. I would also use this site because at the top you can choose exactly what you are looking for. The site also shows you where each part of a sentence goes in the diagram.

I think that site one would be the most helpful for brushing up on your knowledge of diagramming, because it takes you through the process step-by-step and explains each step clearly. If I were to recommend any of these sites to my distressed friend, I would recommend site one because of the examples and the overall clarity of the information. I would not, however, recommend site three, because it all it does is give examples of what other people think of diagramming, and it only gives brief information, while recommending other places to find the information.

I the best site for brushing up on what you know would be site 2 because its not a lot of reading about things you already know. I think the least helpful for learning more about the topic would also be number 2 because it doesn't tell you how to go about filling in a diagram. For the last question, what site would I recommend to a friend stressed about studying for the next knowledge evaluation, would be site 1 because it provides info that shows you the steps rather than just telling you things that wont teach you.

I think site one is the most helpful in brushing up on what you already know. The site is very well laid out; it very clearly provides you with background knowledge, all of the steps, and examples of diagramming sentences. I think site three is the least helpful in learning more about the topic. The site has limited information and doesn’t fully describe how to diagram sentences. Also the site is very confusing and hard to follow. I would recommend site one to a friend because it fully explains each step, and gives examples. Site one is best for preparing for a test or quiz because it has a practice part and walks you through everything you need to know.

The site I think is most helpful is the site 1 because it shows you how to write a skelaton correctly. I would recamend site 1 to me, because i have a hard time writing out the skelatons in english and i think if Mr. Abts did'nt go over the HW with me, I think I would not have done so good on the quiz. I think I could still study the skelaton Because based on site 1 there is still more to come. On our next quiz I think Mr.Abts will have us write even more of the skelaton. This site is best for preparing for a quiz because it will help us learn the new parts of the skelaton.

I think site one is most helpful for brushing up. I think that because, it says thing that we already know but, it has good examples and shows you what to do. The site that I think that would be least helpful is, site three. Why I think that is because, it has what other people think of diagraming. It doesn't show or explain what you should do. The site that I would recommend to a friend is site two. Why I would recommend that site is because, it really explains what diagraming is and how to do it.

The site that I think is the best is site one because it is the best for brushing up on things that you alredy know. I think it is the most helpful because it shows how to diagram step by step. The least helpful it the the third one because there is so many extra things on the page like what other people think. A site that I would recomend toa friend that is stressed about a test would be site one because it is all on page and it has two examples.

I think that site 1 was the easiest to learn more for me. It was the easiest because the sitw gave me exaples and gave me staps in which I should do the diagrams. I would also recommend site one because of those same reasons and it is easy to study from.

I think site one is most useful for brushing up on your knowledge. The title says "Diagramming". Which means the site is teaching you step by step how to do diagramming. i think site 3 is the least helpful because it states what other people think about diagramming, and that could get people confused. I would recemend site 2 for a friend because some of them don't really understand the process, and site 2 has more information about diagramming and how to do it.

I think that sit number one would be most helpful. The reasin why I think this is because it would help with study habbits before a quiz or test. The information on site one would be helpful to myself as well before a test or quiz. It described step by step how to make a very acurate diagram. Site three would be the least helpful because it shows what it teaches us, which could be good in some ways but if you want to learn more I suggest checking site number one and NOT site two or three.

I think site one would be the most helpful in brushing up on what I already know. This site is helpful because the site explains very clearly how to diagram a scentence and it also has a picture that shows the diagram. I think site two is the least helpful because when you click on one of the topics it doesn't tell you where to put it, it only shows a full diagram with that one thin included. I would reccomend site one to a friend becuase as I said before it is written very clearly and it also shows what a correct diagram looks like. This site is best for preparing for a quiz or test because it is acurate information so that you will know how to diagram a sentence correctly.

I think that if I was reccomending a site for my nervous friend to ues i would chose site 1 to reccomend to him. Site 1 takes you through the steps of diagraming and even has examples of how to diagram sentences correctly. The least helpful site I think would be stie 3. The site even says that diagraming sentences is exciting, liars. The site teaches you no grammatical elements whatsoever, and it would be very unfortunate if your friend followed your bad advice and prepared himself with the knowledge on this site.

I think that site one is the most helpful website for brushing up on your knowledge. This site is very helpful because it takes you through all of the steps and shows examples of the diagram of the sentence. The least helpful site I believe would be site two. On site two it had too much info and in my opinion was not set up correctly. I would recommend site one to a friend in need. This site helps to study the most because it is set up in a way that is easy to obtain information and shows you what the diagram should look like.

The site that I think that would be the best to use on finding information would be site one. This site is better because the other ones don't give a lot of info on diagramming. The other ones give only a little bit of info. The site that I think is least helpful is site two. The reason I think that it is site two is because they give you only a sentence or two to work from and a bundle of things to click on and any of them don't talk about diagramming. I would recommed site one to a friend. The reason I think siteone for a friend is because other site are good info. just like I said above.

I would recommend this site because you can narrow down what kind of diagramming you need to know how to do.

I think that the most helpful site for brushing up on what you already know is Site 2. This site is helpful because it gives a different variety of information, rather than just giving you one piece of information. I think the least helpful sit is Site 1. I think that it is this site only gives you diagraming and nothing else. I think the site I would recommend to a friend who is stressed about studying for the next knowledge evaluation is Site 2. This site is good for preparing for a quiz or test because the site gives a lot of straight forward information. This site also allows one to choose from a list of grammar subjects instead of having to scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page to find what you are looking for.

I think site 1 would be best for brushing up on what you already know. This site goes through all the steps and gives examples that help you understand what they are trying to teach you. I think that site 3 is the least helpful. It gives you the history not how to do it. If my friend just wanted to brush up I would send them to site one. If they missed class however, I might send them to site 2. Site one goes through the steps for you. Site 2 has many options to look at.

I think that site one is the most helpful in brushing up on what you already know because it teaches you how to diagram the sentences and about the parts of a sentence that you are diagramming. Site two is the least helpful because it doesn`t explain the parts of a sentence very well. It just teaches you how to diagram them. I would recommend site one to a friend because it clearly states the parts of a sentence and how to diagram them. The only thing that site one doesn`t have information on is indirect objects. This site has good information that is clearly written and would be an excellent site to help prepare you for a knowledge evaluation.

I think site number one was the best choice. I think this because it gives multiple examples of how to diagram and it explains the sentences while showing the indirect object, direct object, subject and verb. I think site number two wsa the worst because it doesn't ave nearly enough information to understand and grasp the concept. I would definitely recommend site number one to a friend who is trying to study really hard for the next quiz or test.

Site One is the most helpful in brushing up on what I already know because it is a simple, easy to follow site that explains the steps thoroughly, and clearly, although it doesn't have us finds prepositions first, instead it starts with the verb. Site Three is the least helpful site because it has nothing about HOW to diagram the sentences; it just talks on and on about the methods and different ways and books to learn how to diagram a sentence. Site One I would also recommend to a friend that I know is stressed about studying for the next knowledge evaluation. This site the best for preparing for a test or quiz because it can really summarize what we need to know (so far) about diagraming sentences. Even though I would say Site One is very good for summarizing what we have learned, Site Two offers a much more in depth learning experience, just in a confusing and fragmented way.

I think site one is the best for brushing up on what you already know. It not only has at least two example diagrams for each concept, but it also has explantation of each part of speech in the diagram and an exact place on the diagram where it goes. The site least helpful for learning more would be site three because most of the site is devoted to explaining things like what diagraming sentences teaches us, not the actual diagraming. If you can find the place where it teaches you, it only gives you a one example diagram per concept and nothing else. That may be enough to review what you already know for some people, but not to teach something new. I would recommend site one for a friend who was worried about studying for the next knowledge evaluation. Site one has a few example diagrams per concept and an explanation of the grammatical word as I mentioned before. It also has a few practice sentences for you to diagram and, unlike the other two it covers only the basics of diagramming and a slightly more. That way my fiend won’t be overwhelmed or confused by the overload of examples that we haven’t covered in class.

I think site one would be best on brushing up because it’s just review and it gives you a chance to practice sentences. I think that I would recommend this site for a friend who is stressing out about a quiz but already knows most of the diagramming information. Site two was definitely the worst. It had no information, and said one thing about diagramming sentences and that was "Welcome to Diagramming Sentences". That’s not helpful. Site three tells a lot about everything, but it seems more complicated, and like a lot to read. Honestly I didn't even make it through the whole site, so I probably wouldn’t recommend that for anyone trying to study up on things.
