We all look things up on the internet and assume it is truthful and worthy. I do it daily. The questions on this evaluation tool helped me to focus on looking for key elements...some that are quickly seen. I learned that when you open a site the technical and visual aspects should be addressed right a way. I believe when we open sites we read what is there and we do not question the validity. I do not think students are aware or skilled at how to determine if it is.
If we are asking students to research anything we need to walk them through the process and help teach them how to ask themselves these questions from the evaluation tool. We first need to educate, educators in how to do this and what to look for.
