Talk about a time in your life where technology most helped you. It can be medically-related, socially-related, really any time that technology affected you in a positive way.

There was a time where technology actually did help me. It affected me in a positive way. That one time was when I needed help figuring out how to spell a complicated word. I forgot what the word was but,  I remember that it was when I was around 12 years old. I was stuck on a word on my English homework, then decided to use the internet to figure it out. This was a time where technology most helped me during my life.

Why do you need to evaluate websites?

I need to evaluate websites for many reasons. One reason why I need to evaluate websites is because some of the information on the website is false and not true. For example, some of the information on Wikipedia is not true and can be changed by anyone who has access to it. Another reason why I need to evaluate websites is because some of the information on the website has viruses and viruses are not good for your computer. These are a few out of many reasons why I need to evaluate websites.
