Explain in detail what it means to evaluate sources and what the criteria for evaluation are.
On Jun 03, 2024
You should evaluate sources for authority,currency,and accuracy.Be especially wary of information obtained from the web.Any person,company,or organization can publish a webpage on the Internet.Ask yourself these questions about the source:
•Authority: Does a reputable institution or group support the source? Is the information presented without bias? Are the author's credentials listed and verifiable?
•Currency: Is the information up to date? Are dates of sources listed? What is the last date revised or updated?
•Accuracy: Is the information free of errors? Is it verifiable? Are the sources clearly identified?
