EDU508 CRAAP Test Worksheet Select five sources related to your research topic. Use the guide below to help you evaluate the sources. Currency: The timeliness of the information: · When was the information published or posted? · Has the information been revised or updated? · Is the information current or out-of-date for your topic? · Are the links functional? Relevance: The importance of the information for your needs: · Does the information relate to your topic or answer your question? · Who is the intended audience? · Is the information level appropriate (i.e. not too basic or advanced for your needs)? · Would you be comfortable using this source in a research paper? Authority: The source of the information: · Who is the author/publisher/source/sponsor? · What are the author's credentials or organizational affiliations? · What are the author's qualifications to write on the topic? · Is there contact information, such as a publisher or e-mail address? · Does the URL (ex. .gov, .org, .com, etc.) reveal anything about the author or source? Accuracy: The reliability, truthfulness, and correctness of the content: · Is the information supported by evidence? · Has the information been reviewed or refereed? · Can you verify any of the information in another source? · Does the language or tone seem unbiased and free of emotion? · Is it free of spelling, grammar, or other typographical errors? Purpose: The reason the information exists: · What is the purpose of the information? · Do the authors/sponsors make their intentions or purpose clear? · Is the information fact? Opinion? Propaganda? · Does the point of view appear objective and impartial? · Is it free of political, ideological, cultural, religious, or personal biases? For each source, use the questions listed in the guide above to help you evaluate the credibility. For each criterion, answer the questions as appropriate, then rank each of the parts from 1 to 10 (1 = unreliable, 10 = excellent). Add up the scores to give you an idea of whether you should use the resource based on the following rating scale: 45–50 Excellent 40–44 Good 35–39 Average 30–34 Borderline Acceptable Below 30 Unacceptable Source: Criteria Rating Currency: Relevance: Authority: Accuracy: Purpose: Score/Rating: Source: Criteria Rating Currency: Relevance: Authority: Accuracy: Purpose: Score/Rating: Source: Criteria Rating Currency: Relevance: Authority: Accuracy: Purpose: Score/Rating: Source: Criteria Rating Currency: Relevance: Authority: Accuracy: Purpose: Score/Rating: Source: Criteria Rating Currency: Relevance: Authority: Accuracy: Purpose: Score/Rating: © 2020 Strayer University.

How to Evaluate Web Sources

National College of Art & Design Library

Ron E. Lewis Library Thinking Critically about Web Information—Applying the CRAAP Test* When you search the Web, you’re going to find a lot of information…but is it credible and reliable? Use this guide to help you determine this for yourself. Give your Web page a score based on this point system. Is your Web source credible and reliable or is it a bunch of … ? SCORE _______ Checking for C-R-A-A-P! POINTS: 0 1 2 3 Currency or Timeliness How important is it for your topic to have recent information? Science, technology, and health information need to be as recent as possible. If yes, how current is the information? There is no indication of when the site was created or updated. The site was created is over 5 years ago with no date given for updating. The site was created, revised or updated within the last 5 years. If they are citing sources, they are also recent. The site was created, revised or updated within the last 2 years. If they are citing sources, they are also recent. Relevance Is this the information you need for your topic? Consider the type of information needed (primary sources or secondary sources) statistics, history or background information. It mentions my topic briefly but not much else. Or it isn’t the type of information I need. Or it isn’t enough information. It provides some information, but it’s not enough, or it’s not the right type of information. It provides most of what I need, but I still need more or another type of information. It is exactly on the subject, is the right amount of information and the right type of information. Authority. Locate the author or sponsor and Google the name to find out more. What else have they published on the topic? Are there any credentials for the person to establish them as expert? Is it the main organization that provides information about a topic? There is either no author, or the author is possibly a student or an ordinary person publishing on the Web without expertise. Or the organization is not known. Text errors indicate the author is not an expert. Author is named but with no credentials. Or the organization is of questionable authority. Web groups can name themselves with names that sound like other credible organizations. Author is named but the degree of expertise is not that high. Or, the organization, is well-known, and but the degree of expertise on this subject is not clear. The author’s credentials are given and clearly indicate that he/she is an expert. Or the organization is well-known and highly credible on the topic. Accuracy Are there any sources cited for the information? Are images/photos labeled and credited? Information is provided with no indication as to where it comes from. There is a vague reference to the information source. Ass ...

In BC’s nearly-decade-old “new” curriculum, the curricular competencies describe the processes that students are expected to develop in areas of learning such as mathematics. They reflect the “Do” in the “Know-Do-Understand” model. Under the “Communicating” header falls the curricular competency “Explain and justify mathematical ideas and decisions.” Note that it contains two processes: “Explain mathematical ideas” and “Justify mathematical decisions.” I have broken it down into its separate parts in order to understand--or reveal--its meaning. The first part is commonplace in classrooms. By now, BC math teachers—and students—understand that “Explain mathematical ideas” means more than “Show your work.” Teachers consistently ask “What did you do?” and “How do you know?” This process is about retelling, not just of steps but of thinking. The second part happens less frequently. Think back to the last time that you observed a student make—a necessary precursor to justify—a mathematical decision. “Justify” is about defending. Like “explain,” it involves reasoning; unlike “explain,” it also involves opinion and debate. In order to reinterpret the curricular competency “Explain and justify mathematical ideas and decisions,” I will continue to take apart its constituent part “Justify mathematical decisions” and carefully examine the term “mathematical decisions.” What, exactly, is a “mathematical decision”? Below, I will categorize answers to this question. These categories, and the provided examples, may help to suggest new opportunities for students to justify.
