Evaluating Web Sites

  • Who is the author? (Is the author a scholar in the field?)
  • What is the subject of the resource? (Does it cover all it should, or does it leave something out? Is it accurate or verifiable?)
  • When was the resource created? (Is the information current?)
  • Why was it created? (Is there bias, or is it objective?)
