It’s online, but is it on target? Part2

                     Research with attitude

Conduct your research with the attitude of a skeptic. As you examine websites for clues that they’re trustworthy, ask these questions:

·         Who wrote the web page? If you can’t identify the individual or organization responsible for the information, don’t use it.

·         What are the author’s qualifications for writing on the subject?

·         Has the article passed through an editorial process designed to ensure quality and accuracy?

·         What is the website purpose? Look for motive like selling products or winning votes that could result in biased or incomplete information.

·         Is the information accurate? Is it up to date?

·         Where did the author get this information?
