How to use a website
 A search engine like bing or google is
not a website
 Websites have multiple pages
 Websites have an independent web
address
 Finding ‘real’ information is difficult
 Anyone can put information on to the
internet
 Difference between creditable
evidence and non-creditable evidence
 Who is getting paid is one of the best
tests for creditability
 Advertisers and free cites should be
suspect for real research
 College and government websites are
very good
 Newspapers are strong too
 About.com pays experts to work for it
 Nothing and everything
 Great source for learning
 Terrible source for research
 Any member can change any
information on the cite
 For years, Mrs. Shipp changed the Zebra
page to say “A Zebra is a white horse
with black stripes or a black horse with
white stripes.” Funny but not true
 You may not cite Wikipedia as a source
for your paper
