Introduction, Instructions

This tutorial is intended to give you a foundation in the evaluation of information sources. Once you find information, you need to evaluate it, to determine it's value with respect to your information needs. This tutorial is presented in two parts. Part I will discuss understanding what type of information source you have and Part II will cover the criteria by which you may evaluate an information source.

To navigate the tutorial, simply click the "Next" or "Back" tiger paws at the bottom of each page. This will walk you through the tutorial sequentially. If you would like to move between or skip around the sections of the tutorial, you may click on the "Contents" box on the left side of the screen. This brings out a hyperlinked Table of Contents to the tutorial. To hide the contents, click it again.

This tutorial should take you approximately 20 minutes to complete.
