how to evaluate internet websites for their reliability and truthfulness. It is the first

middle grades.
The most effective way to implement this activity is to make sure that your
students have a good background knowledge on the importance of good Digital
Citizenship before they use the activity. It should not be presented as an
isolated activity without adequate introductionyour students may end up
with more questions than answers!

establish an account here.
2. Click on the link above and click on the Copy button. This copy will be your

Evaluating Websites
A Digital Interactive Notebook
This product will also work on multiple platforms such as iPads, Schoology,
Notability, Nearpod, Canvas, Edmodo, and Blackboard among others. Please
consult the bonus guide written by Danielle Knight for complete directions on
how to use Google Drive resources with these other platforms.
1. Read why we use the internet. Use the first few slides for a springboard to a
discussion about why students use the internet (games, research, learn
about new places, etc.) and why adults use the internet (same examples
plus word tasks, etc.) You can ask them:
-what websites they like,
-which ones they find the most useful,
-and have they ever seen a site that might contain erroneous
information.
This will pique your students interest, guaranteed!
2. Students will go the Merriam Websters Word Central site to find the
of the words, authentic and hoax. They will type the definitions on a
slide.
3. Students will watch two very short videos on using the 5 Ws when
evaluating websites, available here. Please remember that students will
work with the slides in theEdit mode as they will be adding text.
4. Links to two similar sites, Club Pet Resorts and Dog Island, are presented.
Students will use their knowledge of the 5 Ws and complete a chart on each
website.
5. After the chart has been completed, students will write a short paragraph on
their findings. They will identify which site is real and which one is a hoax.
They are asked to support their findings with at least three reasons.
