Wk 5: Evaluating digital information

The e-learning task has given me an opportunity to read and look at other criterias for evaluating digital resources, namely Internet websites. The framework in Susser & Robb was so detailed that I thought it was quite hard to look at so many modules at one time to do the evaluation. As for the criterias spelled out in Towndrow, i remember we had a chance to practise using it during the previous lesson. So i thought of using the one suggested by MOE's Edumall site. i realised that most of these criterias are quite similar and there are overlaps here and there. What i also found out was that going through the websites, you need to have patience to really go through a few links to know and learn more about the particular site. Of course what was most important was not forgetting what we have learned in earlier lessons, to be aware and more careful of sources and types of information available on the net :)
