How do you decide what websites you will use? en-us 2020-04-15 03:12:10 UTC 2025-10-15 01:21:27 UTC hello@padlet.com Reliable Source https://padlet.com/john_raby/4agwrp0xph49jjcr/wish/509211105 Always double check. When reviewing an article, check to see if this information is on other sites/articles as well. Do these sites end in ".com, .org, .edu?"... looking at the website you can gather information of who wrote this article as well. Research the author of the site/article.]]> 2020-04-15 18:44:05 UTC https://padlet.com/john_raby/4agwrp0xph49jjcr/wish/509211105 Reliable sources! pangus2 https://padlet.com/john_raby/4agwrp0xph49jjcr/wish/509211663 I look at the date a source was published. 
I look for familiar names/authors. 
I look at the organization that published the source. 
I look at the language the sources use. ]]> 2020-04-15 18:44:23 UTC https://padlet.com/john_raby/4agwrp0xph49jjcr/wish/509211663 I use maine digital library or other databases.

Everyone has a bias-what is this source's bias? What are my biases? How are those biases determining the way the information is shared and accepted?

Look at the organization that puts it out and their reputations/standards (for example NatGeo is, for the most part, reliable for geography). Also, it if comes from peer-reviewed sources; our school library has access to databases like Marvel that specifically state if it is peer-reviewed.]]> 2020-04-15 18:45:58 UTC https://padlet.com/john_raby/4agwrp0xph49jjcr/wish/509214459 Reliable resource https://padlet.com/john_raby/4agwrp0xph49jjcr/wish/509215715 If the source is commonly known like a news source. or Nat Geo...museums...
