Evaluating websites assignment

Evaluating websites assignment

• Select a topic related to your profession (or future profession).
• Examine several (this means more than one!) websites on this topic (if you aren't sure about the difference between a website and a web page or something else, please see the info on websites in the content section).
• In written or oral format*, using examples and specific information, 
  • explain why these websites are or are not appropriate for college level student research or for class use (refer back to the information in the library tutorials!)
  • explain the value (or lack thereof) of the websites for use in your professional work.
  • describe any concerns you have about the websites' reliability/validity and give examples for why you have those concerns. If you don't have any, explain why.

The paper should:

• Follow APA format (see your style manual)
• Include a cover page and reference page (not included in the page count). The reference page should contain hyperlinks to the websites' homepage.
• Be well written and include proper use of grammar and spelling. 

*Approximately 1-2 pages of written work or the equivalent if doing an oral presentation
