Reliable Resources

I have been talking to my students a lot about reliable resources. They are gaining an understanding of what those mean and most of them chime in when I say "We need to make sure that are sources are what??? Reliable!" I also developed a "Source Sheet" where they keep track of their sources and include bibliographical info, an annotation, and an explanation of WHY they think that the source is reliable. Examples: the domain is .edu. It was on an online learning resource database.

The source sheet is a great idea; I may suggest that to our LMS and, by extension, to the classes she teaches, [while I'm in the back putting on plastic book covers and applying spine labels... :-)]
