Module $6$ Discussion

Last week we talked about the CRAAP test. Of Currency, Relevance, Authority, Accuracy, Purpose, which do you think is the most important to evaluate a source for? Which do you think will be the easiest to find $($for example, a relevant source or an accurate source$)?$ Which might be the hardest $($especially in the medical industry$)?$

Now, let's put this to practice. Using your top topic choice, list an organization or agency that you might use as a source. Explain why you think they are current, relevant to your topic, an authority$/$expert$,$ why you trust their info. to be accurate, and what the organization's purpose is$.$ Include a link to their website, if available.

For your participation this week, respond to one of your peer's posts. Consider visiting the company website if you have not heard of this organization. Do you agree with your peers' assessment? Do you consider this a usable source? Explain why or why not.
