Answer:

-a magazine article that uses other reliable sources

-a book written in 2014 by a high school teacher

-a recent online journal article by a professor of technology education

Step-by-step explanation:

A reliable source should be credible, allow to identify the author who should have knowledge about the topic he/she is talking about, it shouldn't be old as it could be outdated and it shouldn't have grammar mistakes. According to this, the sources that would be reliable for a research paper about the use of technology in school are:

-a magazine article that uses other reliable sources

-a book written in 2014 by a high school teacher

-a recent online journal article by a professor of technology education

The other options are not right because a web page that has spelling and grammatical errors cannot be trusted, a journal entry written by a high school student could be subjective and the student is not an expert on the topic and a newspaper article written in 1985 is too old.
