Introduction My PowerPoint focuses on HOW to evaluate information found on the web to determine if it is a Bogus or Non-Bogus website/webpage. The “know how” of evaluating information on the web is a critical tool that every teacher as well as student should be exposed too. This class was the first exposure that I have had on the evaluation of websites (I had no idea that “true” Bogus sites even existed). I know that many of my colleagues are in the same boat – which is why I choose this topic. This activity is intended to use during an inservice ½ day as an introduction in the “know how” of evaluating information on the web. It also is an introduction to the world of “Bogus” websites and how they can be effectively implemented into their teaching.

Do you know the difference between a reliable website and an unreliable website?

Evaluate Every WebPage  Content  Accuracy  Objectivity  Timeliness  Authority  User Friendliness

Content  Does the site focus on the topic you are seeking?  How is the organization?  Are spelling and grammar correct?  Do the links work?  Is there additional links; other sources (print/non- print) listed?  Is the overall information informative, unique, perceptive?

Accuracy  Have you compared the information on the site with other sources?  Are their citations given from credible resources?

OBJECTIVITY  What type of site are you looking at: *Commercial *Governmental *Professional *Personal *Academic  What is the author’s point of view? Do they give information from “both sides?”

Timeliness WWWWhen was this site made? HHHHow old is the information contained on the site? HHHHas this site been updated on a regular basis?

Authority  Who are the authors?  What type of expertise do they have on the subject/topic?  Is their a link that provides information about the author?

User Friendliness  Is the information on this site easily accessible?  Can you “travel” throughout the site “effortlessly” or do you need a “road map” on how to get from one place to another.
