4. Research
1. How do you know if a site is VALID?
1. Is the name of the author/creator on the page?
2. Are his/her credentials listed (occupation, years of experience,
position or education)?
3. Is the author qualified to write on the given topic? Why?
4. Is there contact information, such as an email address, somewhere
on the page?
5. Is there a link to a homepage?
6. If there is a link to a homepage, is it for an individual or for an
organization?
7. If the author is with an organization, does it appear to support or
sponsor the page?
8. What does the domain name/URL reveal about the source of the
information, if anything?
9. If the owner is not identified, what can you tell about the origin of the
site from the address?

6. Scientific Method
1. Diagram (labels)
2. Observe (What do your 5 senses tell
you?)
3. Predict (before the event…be honest)
4. Provide Evidence (viable/credible
resources)
5. Record (in your own words)
6. Research/Analyze (support your claim
with evidence)
7. Explain (practical application/use)
