How to know if Web Info is Good or Bad
Good | Bad |
It uses .org and .gov websites | When anyone can post info |
Credits books | If you post a question on ask where anyone can answer |
Set up in a more professional manner | You can’t find the same info anywhere else |
Has access to additional sites and sources | No bibiliography |
Sites sources in the website (in the text) |
|
You can back up info from other accredited sites |
|
Info from Professors, Grad Students, and PhD students |
|
Contact information available |
|
I think the reasons above are what makes websites good. Though some of these are based off of personal opinions, I know that some of them are good because I found examples through sites off of Merlot. I specifically found many sites by professors, grad students, and doctorate students, and their contact information was also given. These sites will be very beneficial when broadening my knowledge. I found lots of information about disorders and how to better my sign language. I liked that there were also visuals and questions asked that will help me in the long run. It's important to know the source of the info because I would not want to learn the wrong information when doing research and I would not want to learn the wrong sign for a word and then use it in conversation only to find that it was not the world I wanted to use. I cannot think of a time when the sources would be not important especially being in a field where I am helping people other than myself.
