Assessment Nº 3: Validating a site
We chose this site because we were looking for information about Jean
Paul Sartre, one of the philosophers we are studying in our Philosophy
class. So, in this case, the page suits our objective by having concise and
useful information about his life and work. This is the first step to validate
our choice. To consult Sartre´ssummary, you can clic here.
The writer of this document is Thomas Flynn, from the department of
Philosophy at Emory University. The article consulted was published
through the Stanford University Press. For further data about the autor, clic
here. There you can find not only personal and academical details, but also
a link to communicate with Flynn.
The publishing institution is Stanford University, a very well known
university all over the world, and the publishing information is contained
here.
2. This is a free page, so we consider it valid. The purpose of this work is
academic and it does not have either dead links or advertising.
You do not need to download any special software, and you can use any
browser of your choice to browse through it.
This page belongs to the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, and it
not only consists of Sartre´s work, but also links to libraries, the author and
editorial´s information, other philosopher´s theories, etc. Almost at the end
of the page you can find all the bibliography consulted for this work
(divided into primary sources and secondary sources), as well as other
internet resources that the reader may use to broaden Flynn´s report and
links to some entries which are related to this subject.
For all these reasons we consider this page valid for investigation,
taking into account its accuracy, objectivity, currency, authority and
coverage.
For all this, we consider this page useful for us, as TTC students, and
also for those who are at the beggining of a philosophical carreer, and even
for other people who might be interested for personal reasons.
What follows is a capture of the article´s starting point.
