Assessment Criteria

To evaluate a source, use these assessment criteria:

author

publisher

date

content

reputation

CAUTION!

It's unlikely that you'll give full marks to every source on every criterion.

Therefore,

  • select each source according to its overall quality

    AND

  • emphasise those criteria which best match your assignment's requirements.
