Actually Evaluating a Web Page
I had the opportunity to use an evaluation tool to evaluate a web site that I could potentially use as a resource when I become a teacher. I will be working with some children with learning disabilities so I looked for a site that might be a useful resource on the topic. I found a site that looked very nice and seemed to be full of great information. From first glance I thought I would be checking the box for "highly recommend" at the end of my evaluation, but that was not the case. This site did not provide any contact information for the author and I was unable to find out if the organization behind the site was considered a leader on the topic or not. I did recommend with reservations, however, because there were many publications with references and all that I believe would be a good resource. This assigment helped me to be able to take a closer at web sites before I trust the author or the information provided.
