Practical 6 Reflection

0014 in the early morn


This practical enables me to evaluate selected Internet resources based on identified criteria.

After completing practical 6, i realise that it is important to identify the problems with internet information. We need to evaluate the resources we retrived on the net. How do we evaluate? In this practical, we learnt that there are 8 criteria to evaluate.

Through this practical, various problems I encountered is identifying whats the purpose of this website, whether the objective is clearly stated. Some website may have more than one purpose (too much information), which made viewers confuse on what this website is trying to say. Having to know the purpose of a website is important as to our research, whether the information given is really what we want. Another problems I faced is identifying the authority. I noticed that a lot of the website doesn't state the publisher of the site or the sponsors/funding agencies of the site. Whether the information given is reliable. My approch to this problems I encountered is by doing cross-referencing to other sources, like design magazine/books or other media. To make sure both informations tally.

I also learnt that not all the evaluation criteria apply to all websites. We need to select the relevant criteria to achieve the best and accurate evaluation.
