Notes from Millie D

At this MAINEducation conference David Warlick showed an example of backtracking on a website to figure out the author or group providing the information.   He used MLK’s site with the dot org.  When you backtrack and investigate people find out that it goes back to a white supremisist group spewwing hate.  I’ve got the sense from the link below that people are using this example in their classroom (applaud the effort but not the results) because Google has ranked that page higher than sites that help the cause the man died for.
