The line graph shows the # of total violent crime offenses and NOT the number of violent crimes committed by video game players.]]> 2017-02-23 20:05:53 UTC https://padlet.com/msgilmoresclass/48r7kfxgpgba/wish/155891106 msgilmoresclass https://padlet.com/msgilmoresclass/48r7kfxgpgba/wish/155891107 The author wanted to try to show a connection between the popularity of video games and the number of crimes committed.]]> 2017-02-23 20:05:53 UTC https://padlet.com/msgilmoresclass/48r7kfxgpgba/wish/155891107 msgilmoresclass https://padlet.com/msgilmoresclass/48r7kfxgpgba/wish/155891108 Yes, both sources are reliable because they are related to the topic.

Why or why not?]]> 2017-02-23 20:05:53 UTC https://padlet.com/msgilmoresclass/48r7kfxgpgba/wish/155891124 https://padlet.com/msgilmoresclass/48r7kfxgpgba/wish/156817345 2017-02-28 18:14:46 UTC https://padlet.com/msgilmoresclass/48r7kfxgpgba/wish/156817345 https://padlet.com/msgilmoresclass/48r7kfxgpgba/wish/156860712 I don't think two graphs are related because one graph is talking about violent crime and one is talking about computer and video games, they are two different things. When the video game sales increases, the violent crime decreases. it doesn't make sense. Overall, I think there isn't a correlation between violent crime and computer and video game sales. ]]> 2017-02-28 20:26:36 UTC https://padlet.com/msgilmoresclass/48r7kfxgpgba/wish/156860712 https://padlet.com/msgilmoresclass/48r7kfxgpgba/wish/156884255 In my opinion the author combined data from both graphs because he or she wanted us to know how computer video games may sometimes be related to violent crimes because some video games include violence and I guess that people are motivated to do what appears in the games.  ]]> 2017-02-28 22:23:11 UTC https://padlet.com/msgilmoresclass/48r7kfxgpgba/wish/156884255 https://padlet.com/msgilmoresclass/48r7kfxgpgba/wish/156884302 According to my opinion,  the source about increasing sales of video-games is not reliable, because producers are interested in getting money, so maybe they speculate on this information to encourage people to buy games. Information in graph about decreasing crimes in the U.S. is reliable, because official source can't falsify information.]]> 2017-02-28 22:23:40 UTC https://padlet.com/msgilmoresclass/48r7kfxgpgba/wish/156884302 https://padlet.com/msgilmoresclass/48r7kfxgpgba/wish/156913824 The reason why author combine those different data is because there are some bloody game that will effect people's heart and then having violence behavior]]> 2017-03-01 02:40:28 UTC https://padlet.com/msgilmoresclass/48r7kfxgpgba/wish/156913824 https://padlet.com/msgilmoresclass/48r7kfxgpgba/wish/157089089 I think we these sources are reliable, because they don't have any benefits when they show wrong graph. For example, if they can get more money with graph, it's not reliable, but they can't get more money with the graph.]]> 2017-03-01 16:56:29 UTC https://padlet.com/msgilmoresclass/48r7kfxgpgba/wish/157089089 https://padlet.com/msgilmoresclass/48r7kfxgpgba/wish/157090727 I think the graphs are related through appearance and both graphs are analysed for 8 - 9 years and the time period is also almost the same. They have the same graph source.]]> 2017-03-01 17:00:23 UTC https://padlet.com/msgilmoresclass/48r7kfxgpgba/wish/157090727
