This week, we focused on internet literacy. This means that we learned how to tell if a website is real, or if it is a hoax. There were a couple of ways to tell: looking at the source of the website, looking at what kind of website it is (.com, .org, .net, etc.), looking at the content of the website, looking at what the resources are, and other aspects like that.
Overall, it was very straightforward and seemed like there are some obvious methods of telling if the website is fake. This will definitely be useful for me to know, so that I can help students find legitimate websites when they are doing research.
