LEARNING INTENTION Evaluating various types of digital media using the CARRDSS methodology (from the Junior Cycle Science curriculum) to assess the credibility, accuracy, reliability, relevance, date, source, scope and purpose of online research.
CHAPTER OVERVIEW
It is sometimes difficult to know if sources are accurate and reliable. Deciding what sources to include in your research project can be a daunting task even after narrowing down your Google search. Therefore, we evaluate our sources so that we can include the most relevant and valid information in our research projects. We will use the CARRDSS methodology for evaluating digital research.
