| Evaluating Web Resources |
One Quick Note about periodicals: In general, peer reviewed journals usually contain the most credible information because 1) the journals tend to be specific to certain fields and 2) the peer review process means that other specialists in the field have reviewed the information. Peer reviewed journals tend be described, as more scholarly, whereas
magazines and newspapers are less scholarly. |
