How do I know if a resource is credible?
Answer
Evaluating Information
When you look at a source, which could be a website or webpage, or even an article in a newspaper, how do you know if it is credible?
This process is not always straightforward. If you are unsure about the credibility of a source, try these steps:
- Search the web for information about the author to see whether they are credible.
- Search the web for information about the organization who published it, to see if they are credible.
