Information
websites
In this modern age another easy way to collect a large range of information is through articles online, history websites are particularly useful but as with any information collected the purpose of the source must be examined to determine its usefulness. Never the less I can use online articles and websites to gather more facts and statistics.
1) http://www.history.com/topics/titanic
This article provides great depths of detail about the creation and sinking of the ship as well as many pictures and a few videos that help build a better picture of Titanic and what happened the night it sank.
2) http://www.eyewitnesstohistory.com/titanic.htm
This article is different in the sense it is an eye witness report, this could be more useful as it gives us the sinking of the ship from a persons point of view who was there, just like what the film attempts to do. On the other hand this could be less useful as shock and memory could affect their judgement when retelling this story.
3) http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/lists/Titanic-40-fascinating-facts/
Again this is slightly different but rather because it lays out the facts without fancy words surrounding them, its helpful in providing me with clear facts that I can cross reference with the film but also has a lot of unnecessary information that although is interesting isn't relevant to the time frame of the film as it focuses more on the ships creation.
