Hi, I’m Jake. I need to write an essay on the evolution of recycling technologies for my science class. But the NCAA Championship game is at 8 PM tonight, and I really don’t want to miss it. My teacher said I need to use reliable sources. I go straight to the internet but a lot of the results I get are ads and business websites. So, I text my friend Lisa for help. With 4 hours to go before game time, I log into Explora and run my search. These hits are right on target. I even get a topic overview along with related articles. I can hear a lot of the articles read aloud too, which is cool. Sometimes it helps me to listen when I read. Explora also lets me sort search results by source type, so it’s easy to find the reliable resources my teacher wants me to use. Another great thing is that all of the sources I find contain citation information that I can include on my works cited page. With Explora I get my essay done quickly using sources I know my teacher and I can trust and I don’t miss a moment of the big game.
