Evaluating websites
Not all sources on the Web are equally valuable or reliable. Individual sites are not screened or standardized in any way to determine if the information they provide is accurate or useful. Critically evaluating the information you find is central to successful academic research. Determining the credibility of information found on the Web is not always easy - think of the following criteria during evaluation. The World Wide Web offers a great wealth of information, as well as the opportunity for people to express themselves and exchange ideas. This makes it a potentially great place to accomplish research on many topics. But putting documents or pages on the Web is easy, cheap or free, unregulated and unmonitored. If you are using a Web-based source for a research paper, you will need to develop skills to evaluate the credibility and appropriateness of what you find. The following checklist presents questions to ask to help determine whether a Web page is a suitable resource for a research paper, or not. Don't expect to be able to answer all the questions, all the time, for all Web sites you look at. Rather, try to use the questions as a tool to help you look at Web pages critically.

Evaluating Sources' Credibility
This document discusses how to evaluate sources for reliability when conducting research. It identifies several factors to consider, including usefulness, credibility, bias, currency, reliability, authority, purpose/point of view, and potential red flags. Usefulness considers how the source fits your research topic and purpose. Credibility examines the author's credentials, publisher reputation, date of publication, accuracy, and citations. Bias considers any slant or agenda in the content. Red flags include anonymity, poor writing, and lack of evidence or corroboration. Careful evaluation of sources is essential for quality research.
Online Research
The document provides guidance on how to evaluate the quality and reliability of websites for research. It identifies six key criteria: authority, accuracy, coverage, objectivity, currency, and navigation. For each criterion, it provides questions to consider in determining whether a site meets that standard, such as checking for author credentials, obvious mistakes, biased or inflammatory language, dated content, and usability of navigation. The document advises using search engines like Google to investigate authors and sponsors when information is missing from sites, and provides additional tips for effective online research.
