Evaluating Internet Resources and Web-Based Lessons
A Learning Module for WIT 2002 adapted by Darlyne
Delaney
Introduction:
The Internet is populated with websites that can be useful
to you and to your students. The Internet is also populated with
websites that are irrelevant, misleading and/or academically suspect.
With so much available, how does one go about evaluating the content, style
and feel of the websites? As a result of this lesson, you will be
able to:
-
take a critical look at various websites and Internet resources
to determine their credibility and usefulness
-
gain insight into what makes a website "good" in view of
applying that knowledge to building your own page/website
-
explore and evaluate web-based lessons
