3a Select sites to evaluate.  Fill out  website evaluation forms for three if you are working alone, or for five as partners. 
3b.  As you complete the website evaluations, also take notes on each site -- finding information you can use when you put together your PowerPoint.
3c. Make sure you prepare a bibliography entry for each source you will use.  
(You should have all website evaluations completed, printed, and checked off by Ms. Dorsey by December 12.)

  • We will  work on these next time.   You could also do these from home.   Don't forget to save your work on a thumb drive  if you work at home or at another computer not linked to your school file.  If you are working in Lab 201 or 211 or a keyboarding class, save to your own file as well as to a thumb drive/flash drive. 
  • If you are working alone, you will need three of these (each for a different site), and if you are working as a pair, you will need five website evaluations (each for a different site).  
  • When you have a website evaluation filled in and have taken notes on it, save it, print it, and have Ms. Dorsey check it off.
