Two totally different articles on different topics actually have a lot in common. Well they one little thing in common. They are both related to the dentistry field; however, one is speaking about human dental and another is elaborating on a issue in veterinary dentistry. I myself did not know that there was a dentist for animals. Okay, let's steer back on topic. I found a blog called: The Dental Warrior.
This blog was obviously not intended for a student body audience. The choice of vocab is mainly words from the dental field. Throughout reading this blog I found myself looking up some of the vocab; and, I am quite familiar with dental vocab. One thing that did catch my eye with this blog post is the amount of links and pictures that were used. The vocab was hard to understand; but. the pictures that he included kind of helped you understand.

I also found another source related to my field through an article. The source was an article I found on scholar.google.com. The website had over a million articles related to dentistry and other types of science related fields. There was one that caught my eye that is related to veterinary dentistry. Many people like myself are unaware that there is a such thing. I question 20 people from my floor and every 0 out of 5 people knew that existed. My roommate even questioned why would animal need a dentist? I am not sure... But the article I read basically dealt with the mouth structure of a rat.
This article bored me to death. The use of vocab was once again intended for others of that field. Not your everyday college student. After awhile I gave up on trying to understand the vocab. I did make sure that I could grab a general understanding of the article. The delivery style was brought in with a bunch of reading and charts. The page had little to no coloring at all. It was all grey-scale, and tiny words. There was absolutely nothing that caught my eye in this article besides the title and topic.
The articles were both related to dentistry, and they had the same intended audience, The style was quite different but they both relayed their message. The authors made sure they had something to catch and keep the audience's attention. I believe they both did a good job. The source I would recommend to my classmates would be source 1. Only reason would be because the minimal reading and the pictures used helps the reader understand more.
