  Find and Evaluate Internet Sources

Travel Down the Right ROAD: Evaluating Internet Sources

Whether you use a directory, search engine, or metasearch engine, you must evaluate the information you find on the Internet to ensure that it is valuable and trustworthy. We’ve developed a simple acronym that should help—ROAD.

Special thanks to Bernice Dobbins and Summer Woodman, Academic Center Peer Writing Tutors, for assistance in developing the ROAD acronym.
