In terms of evaluating information...

 

I expect my students to be able to:

  • Understand that evaluation criteria are relative to information need

  • Identify a source's credibility, purpose, timeliness, relevance

  • Distinguish scholarly and popular sources, professional and informal sources

  • Distinguish full text sources from abstracts, book reviews, and other abbreviated sources

  • Recognize the potential for bias in a source
