Read Between the lines
Make a judgment
about the site’s reliability based on your own analysis of the site and the
information it contains. Here are some ways to do this:
·
Look for facts you know or can check with a trusted
source. If the site gets those facts right, it’s more likely that some of the
other facts on the site are also accurate.
·
Study the language used. Is it angry, satiric or overly
impassioned? This may indicate that the site is biased.
·
Consider whether the arguments are logical and backed
up by evidence, and whether the site presents only one point of view.
·
Check the links to the sources that the author acknowledges.
Scholarly writing, whether in print or online, should include a bibliography.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!
