The entire human body replaces itself about every 7 years

    Today's alternate fact is "The entire human body replaces itself about every 7 years." Did anyone know about it? I did not! I think it is pretty interesting fact to read about. But does everyone like to read? I don't think so! Some people might have troubles with reading and understanding what is it about or it takes so much time. For this we have visual facts, videos that we can watch. So, today I am going to compare 2 sources that I chose. One is going to be only primarily text and the other one is primarily visual and you all can decide what is better for you.

    A written article is more about understanding and paying attention to each word. In primarily text author includes strong details and strong words since we can't see any pictures. We also can see written examples. We have to have imagination. That way we can imagine pictures in our heads. In the article I chose we can paragraphs and each paragraph has a title and a different meaning. What I think helps the readers follow the information and don't get lost. Also, I would like to point  that primarily text written in a formal format. What makes readers trust that article.
 A primarily visual is more about listening and watching. In the video I chose we can see a lot of visual examples, explanation and we can see the person who is giving us information. We also can hear music on the background what I think is not necessary. I feel like music distracts us from hearing what that person is saying but at the same time it's fun to watch. Most of the time we are focus  on the pictures they are showing us. If not, then on the person who's giving us information. In the video we can see how person is moving his hands. The way she talks we can decide we if believe her or not.

Why college graduation rate is so low?

  To graduate in four years, students must take and pass at least 15 credits a semester. What is pretty a lot for students and some people cannot afford it. Some people fail their classes, so they have to take them again. That's why four-year graduation rate is 33.3%. Some people think that four years is not a lot ,so they decide to take a break. Otherwise students who's taking six-year college know that they a lot ofyears left, so they are trying to finish it as soon as possible. Let’s talk about the factors in low graduation rates. First factor is going to be Income-related issues. One of the largest factors is being a family and personal income. If a student cannot continue paying for college, they may have to drop out completely or put their education on hold, quite possible for years. That way they can go to work to supplement the family income or even because the student provides the sole financial support for the family. Other students may drop out to assume childcare ...

Introduction

Recently researchers have discovered that concussions and brain trauma which are common in the game can actually lead to severe mental health issues as players age.  Concussions and other types of repetitive play-related head blows in American football have been shown to be the cause of  chronic traumatic encephalopathy , which has  led to player deaths and other debilitating symptoms after retirement ,  including memory loss ,  depression ,  anxiety ,  headaches ,  and sleep disturbances .

Social Media

     Social media has become the main source of news online with more  with more than 2.4 billion internet users , nearly 64.5 percent receive breaking news from Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Snapchat and Instagram instead of traditional media. But, can we trust everything what says in social media? "There are  many "fake news" websites that compete for attention with sensational headlines and ridiculous storylines that tend to get shared more often due to the lack of readers fact checking or reading more than the headline. That means that authentic content is hard to come by now. In fact, fake news is actually more likely to spread than the truth," said Martin, Nicole.  I agree with it. It seems like we can't trust social media. Most of the time they make up the news. That way more people want to read the news and the website gets more views.     News happens fast now. Today’s story will be tomorrow’s forgotten story. It is easy to miss t...
