Choose a topic from the list below. Find three different websites that would be credible sources for academic research on your chosen topic.

Topic choices:

• Emerging Technology in Healthcare
• Healthcare Policy and Legislation
• Healthcare Informatics
• Electronic Health/Medical Records
• Privacy, Security and Confidentiality in the Healthcare Environment

In a Word document, you will include a link for each website, along with a rationale (75 words per source) supporting why you believe the site is a valid source to retrieve information from.

Your rationale should focus on the website credibility indicators discussed in the tutorials and lesson presentations in this Unit. Remember that usability and credibility are not the same thing; the website is easy to use - great, but why do you trust it? That's what you should focus on.

A few points of clarification on this assignment:

• You will be evaluating the credibility of the website as a whole (your link should go to the home page of the website). You should be finding WEBSITES...not webpages, database articles or any other type of source. A website is represented by a link such as http://www.nasa.gov/ (Links to an external site.). A webpage is represented by a link such as http://www.nasa.gov/audience/forstudents/ (Links to an external site.). .
• Find THREE specific credible websites (not webpages nor articles) that you would use for academic research pertaining to the ONE topic. Approach this assignment as if you were getting ready to write a paper for a class, and you were first looking for good sources.
