Chapter 30

In Chapter 30, it goes through how to realize if website are dependable. It tells you the steps you need to know to determine if your information is accurate. I always use google, so seeing all the new ways of finding information on it was nice. I never realized all the things i was looking over, until i saw the pictures in the book and read the ways to find what your looking for. It also gives good information on what other websites to use to help guide you to good information, such as DogPile.

I learned how to recognized reliable websites and who is making them. If it is a educational, non-profit, or government organization, only use them if they list their sources. If they do, go to that source and check its professionalsim and organization. Expert authors will most likely include there credentials or degree on the website. If you feel like some information is a little off, you can email them if they leave an email account, if not, then trash the information. I found out that publications from newspapers and magazines are just as reliable as the original form, as long as the information is continually updated and checked. For the most part, most biased writings are not very reliable, and shouldn't be used in considering your research.
