Evaluating Internet Sources

1. Preview
In this activity, you will evaluate four Internet sources for the topic below. Click on each link below to view the sources.  For each source, use the evaluation criteria we discussed in class today to decide if it is an appropriate source for the topic (see p. 304-306 for review). Write a short explanation detailing why you think a source is appropriate or inappropriate for the topic. If you are not sure, explain why it might or might not be appropriate. This is collected HW. Please write your explanations on a separate sheet of paper. You can number (1, 2, 3, 4) each explanation based on the source numbers below (Source 1, Source 2, etc.). Please let me know if you have any questions.
