Online Learning
Part 1
Read Between the Lines
Make a
judgment about the site’s reliability based on you own analysis of the site and
the information it contains. Here are some ways to do this:
Look for facts you know or can check
with a trusted source. If the site gets those facts right, it’s more likely that
the other facts on the site are also accurate. Study the language used. It is angry,
satiric or overly impassioned? This may indicate that the site is biased. Consider whether the arguments are
logical and backed up by evidence, and whether the site presents only one point
of view. Check the links to the sources that
the author acknowledges. Scholarly writing, whether in print or online, should
include a bibliography.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!
