"Visiting WikiHow"

The topic I chose to look up was auto racing. A brief search returned many possible topics for this blog post. The article I chose is "How to Race Your Car." The article consists of 13 steps and some tips and warnings. The objectives and goals do not exist. However, the directions for getting started in racing are clear. The quality directions give good information and are well written. Racing can be very dangerous and safety is always the most important thing. The article recommends taking a drivers education course before taking your car to the track. It is crucial to learn the basics before you go wide-open for the first time. As with anything the more you practice the better you will become. This article did not have clear specific objectives.
Here is my list of objectives for this topic:
1) The driver will be aware of all safety guidelines.
2) The driver will be able to steer the car successfully through the course.
3) The driver will know all the rules for the race.
4) The driver will know all the flags and what they mean.

These objectives are clearly measurable and if attained you can HAVE FUN racing a car.
