Assignment--Evaluating+Web+Sites+-+SEE+READING+AND+NOTATING+NON-FICTION+GUIDELINES+SO+YOU+WILL+KNOW+HOW+TO+MARK+TEXT

Today we demonstrated the importance of the role of evaluation in using information from the free Internet. Our focus was on pre-selected web sites from reliable and credible sources such as Librarians' Internet Index, Internet Public Library, Digital Librarian, eLibrary's ProQuest Homework Central Websites, etc.

The homework assignment is in 6 parts:


 * 1) To demonstrate your ability to find a pre-selected web site from the list labeled "[|LC_Pre-selected_Websites2.doc][|."]
 * 2) To read the web page you found on your research topic using active reading skills. Please use the //**Reading & Notating Non-fiction**// marking system you employed in previous assignments.
 * 3) [|[[http://uatechcoaching.wikispaces.com/file/view/LC_Six_Questions_of_Cyberspace3-1.doc|LC_Six_Questions_of_Cyberspace3-1.doc]]] to download the assignment entitled "//Assignment: Evaluating Web Sites//." For this assignment you will select a web site with information that further enhances your research topic. The web site must be a pre-selected web site (i.e., the web site must be found using the list labeled "Pre-selected Web Sites: A Directory") [|LC_Pre-selected_Websites2.doc]  for the list of pre-selected web sites.
 * 4) As the reviewer of this web site you must type your responses to 25 questions. When directed you are to respond to each of the questions in full sentences, provide concrete examples from the text of the web site, perform the exercises and describe your findings.
 * 5) For this assignment, submit the completed "//Assignment: Evaluating Web Sites//" and a copy of the web page you reviewed on the **date your teacher requires the assignment**. The copy of the web page should demonstrate your active reading (author's main idea, author's supporting idea, unfamiliar vocabulary or important keywords, and unclear or puzzling passages).
 * 6) Staple the web page(s) and the "//Assignment: Evaluating Web Sites//." together. Be sure to include your name, date, period, and teacher's name in the upper left-hand corner of all documents.
