research with attitude
conduct your research with the attitude of a skeptic. As you examine websites for clues that they’re trustworthy, ask these questions: 
• Who wrote the webpage? If you can’t identify the individual or organization responsible for the information, don’t use it. 
• What are the author’s qualifications for writing on the subject?
• Has the article passed through an editorial process designed to ensure quality and accuracy?
• What is the website’s purpose? Look for motives – like selling products or winning votes – that could result in biased or incomplete information.
• Is the information accurate? Is it up-to-date?
• Where did the author get this information?
