The battle for your mind at your fingertips
If you are like most students, you are relying heavily on resources from the Web for your research. Not all Web resources are created equal. In fact, there are great variations in the quality of the resources you access. The rule of thumb is "when in doubt, doubt." When you carefully select your resources, when you understand their strengths and limits, you create better products. Making smart choices about the information you find is just like making other choices- it really helps to know your options. Your task is to create a resource (a poster, a handout) for your fellow students to use in the library or the classroom to help them to evaluate websites on their own. Use these questions to guide you.

The Internet is not the only information option. Remember that journals, books, videos and other sources are available as well. Evaluating information is a skill you will be using throughout your lifetime. |
