I've included an explanation for the ranking under each of the criteria for evaluating a site reliable. Over all I found this site to be a good source of information. The only glaring thing to me was the lack of any authors name or credentials. However this is sponsored by a museum, the Carnegie Museum of Natural History.

I've included an explanation for the ranking under each of the criteria for evaluating a site reliable. I did not like this site as a source for credible information. The first and most obvious reason is it is published by a company whose purpose is to sell you a service. The information is cut and pasted together with no adherence to chronological order. and the only outside reference is from a book published in 1906. While this could be entertaining to read on some level it is not a reliable source for academic purposes.

ReplyDeleteGood work on your site Jason! I like how well organized it is and how you have posted several pictures for your viewers, makes it a little more appealing when there are graphics. Quick note, when I click on your CRAAP assignment, the actual form you filled out, once it loads the page it won't let you go back to your blog, not sure if I'm missing something just thought I would let you know. As teachers we need to utilize every resource we have available, and one of the best resources is our peers and co-workers. I'm glad we have all made these blogs because we get a lot of valuable information during our Elementary Ed. journey, this makes it nice to organize and use, especially if I don't have something but somebody else does. Again, great job with your blog, I hope we can all have access to each others even when school is out.
