Internet resources can provide valuable information, however, remember that anyone can publish a web site and anyone can manufacture information. For these reasons it is important that you carefully evaluate web content. If you plan to use internet sources for your research you must provide a proper citation.

Authority/Responsibility
Purpose
Currency
Objectivity
Accuracy
Appropriateness
