Evaluation

Once you have found some information you need to make sure you evaluate it. Not everything you find will be reliable, suitable or useful and it is important that you can evaluate the quality, accuracy, relevance, bias, reputation and credibility of the information you find. This applies to both electronic information as well as print. You also need to be able to critique the information you read and assess its credibility and identify the key viewpoints and conclusions. This topic will talk about different information types and how you can evaluate each one.
