Evaluating information Online
It is well known that anyone can post anything on the Internet. In addition, it is good to evaluate all information critically including books, journal articles, and reports. As an added bonus, critically evaluating what you read will help you produce a better literature review. After this session, you will have a strategy to evaluate information and you will recognize why peer review is used by so many journals.
Before the live session, take the pre-session survey and review the online content in Brightspace. Please choose a peer-reviewed journal article as well. During the live session, you will critique the article that you chose.
Prof. Marilia Antunez is the Life & Allied Health Librarian. She has expertise in evaluating for information particularly in the Life Sciences.
