Website Critique Discussion Topic

Instructions:

1. Post URLs (website addresses) for two websites that are related to your research topic. One of the websites should be suitable for academic research and the other site should NOT be a site you can use for research. Then using the terminology you learned from watching the two videos in this module (and the CRAAP worksheet), in a paragraph or two explain why one website is reliable enough for academic research and why the other site is not appropriate as a source for the research paper.

2. Once you have posted critiques of your sites, visit at least two other postings and see if you agree with your classmates' critiques. If you do, discuss why you do, and if you don't discuss why you don't. Be specific. Use the specific criteria outlined on the CRAAP worksheet. Remember that the purpose of this activity is help each other determine where credible information can be found online. Try to respond to classmates who don't have any responses yet.

This is a post first discussion. You must post your work before you can see other postings.  You must post first in order to receive credit for the assignment.

This assignment is worth 40 points (20 points for your original posting), and 10 points for each of two res
