Train your eye and your fingers to
employ a series of techniques that
help you quickly find what you need
to know about web pages.
Train your mind to think critically,
even suspiciously, by asking a series
of questions that will help you decide
how much a web page is to be
trusted.
1. Before you leave the list of search
results -- before you click and get
interested in anything written on the
page.
2. Then choose pages most likely to
be reliable and authentic.
1. Look for a link called "links,"
"additional sites," "related links,".
2. In the text, if you see little footnote
numbers or links that might refer to
documentation, take the time to explore
them.
3. Look at the publisher of the page
Citing a source means to acknowledge, or
give credit to, the person who actually
created the content you’re using. The
opposite of this is plagiarism, which means
to take someone else’s work and claim it as
your own.
Whenever you use a direct quote,
acknowledge the quote by placing it inside
quotation marks and then naming the
author.
There is no single standard for citing or
referencing online sources correctly; instead
there are several guidelines based on style
preferences. It is important for teachers to
identify the style they require
Core elements in citing material include the author’s
last name, first name (when known); the title of the
specific document, article, or work in quotes, (when
known); the title of the larger work if there is one, the
date when the article was published (when available);
the date of the last revision if any; the date you
accessed the material, and for internet resources, the
URL where the content is hosted.
Citing your sources is important for two key
reasons. The first is to give credit where credit is
due to the people whose work you quote, or used
as a basis for your ideas. The second reason is to
allow others who read or see your work to check
the resources you’ve used to check for accuracy
by following your citation to the exact article, or
website you reference, or to learn more from that
resource if they are looking to expand their own
understanding.
