2. Evidence Tracker Notes and Reminders Review: What am I doing
Evidence Tracker Notes and Reminders Review: What am I doing? Why am I doing it? Standard and learning goal - You are gathering evidence in order to develop the topic with relevant facts, definitions, concrete details, quotations, or other information and examples.
You will use your notes and evidence tracker(45%) to guide you in gathering and organizing research for an essay we are writing on the topic The Role of Advertising in the Lives of Youth.
The essay will have an introductory paragraph, body paragraphs, and a conclusion. You will use NoodleTools to create a works cited page.
The Role of Advertising in the Lives of Youth – subtopics/body paragraphs
Youth – singular or plural – what do we know? When we use the word do we mean one or two or do we mean all young people?
Each body paragraph will be about one of the subtopics. The research lends itself to the following subtopics.
Health - emotional impact/self-image
Subtopic 1 - How does advertising affect the mental and/or physical health of youth?
Family and social relationships - Amount of ads/time/distraction
Subtopic 2 - How does advertising to young people affect their social relationships and family life?
Spending habits
Youth want specific products
Subtopic 3 -How do advertising techniques used by marketers affect the habits of youth?

3. Remember: Choose strong evidence:
"They spend about $1 billion a year on food ads aimed at teens, according to a 2012 report." 
Would this be considered strong evidence? Why?
When writing titles, use the rules for capitalizing titles. I have written them for you, so copy them correctly.
Do not use the same article twice
You have three sections – keep each topic together in a section, but skip around depending on what you find as evidence.
Periods 1, 2, and 3 – Numbers will use Cobb Digital today will use SpringBoard. We will switch tomorrow.
Periods 4 and 5 – Numbers will use Cobb Digital today and 1 – 12 will use SpringBoard. We will switch tomorrow.

Evidence Tracker – Use Noodletools to cite the article and add it to your project.

Quote/Evidence

  “Attack of the Ads”
Joe Bubar
Notice the italics and the quotation marks. Why did I capitalize the words Attack and Ads? Why not capitalize of and the? When would one capitalize The?
 You will find the original page number on the PDF version of the article or in the citation you copy for NoodleTools.
 “The Nielsen Company tracked the number of food ads that kids saw in It found that kids watched nearly 12 food ads on TV each day. Most of these ads weren’t for healthy foods.”
Remember – A quote used as evidence should not be changed in any way. You are using quotation marks to show that you copied it word for word from the text/article. If there is an error in the text, you will not correct it. If 1st person pronouns are used or contractions are used, you do not change it. It must be exactly like the text/article. However, in your commentary, you will use formal writing only. No first person and no contractions.
