Chris Nolan's Presentation

Even though I missed being able to personally hear Chris Nolan speak, just looking over the notes from his presentation was enlightening. Although this may sound absurd, up then I had never even heard of Google Scholar, and now look forward to having such a reliable search engine to pull up scholarly documents. Similarly, the information on what makes a website reliable is also interesting. Too often is it too easy to read something and believe it, but going over Mr. Nolan's notes reminded me of the importance of analyzing the credibility of the author and checking for the references used in an article. These hints may seem small, but they are applicable to everyday life!
