Website Evaluation

The website evaluation was helpful in a sense, but I don't think I had that good of a website. I picked a website that was listed and it was a website full of short stories about ghosts and other haunted items. It was an interesting website but it wasn't the most established. It wasn't published by a legitimate publisher and most of the stories were submitted by readers. For what it is, it was very good, but it's not necessarily the most useful for a classroom setting. Actually evaluating the website was really easy for me, but I don't think I learned that much. Since there wasn't much established information, it was just a little FAQ section, I didn't really have to delve into the website. It answered most of my questions in the FAQ and gave me lots of questions on what was a legitimate, not that it was ever going to be a reliable source or anything. I wasn't sure if the website who published the stories were considered publishers or not. It lied on a fine line of not a personal website, but not really an established website either. I knew when I looked at it that it wasn't going to be the most reliable teaching website, but I figured I could evaluate and look at what not to do. Overall, the website evaluation was helpful even though I didn't have the best website because I at least got a sense of what to look for when making or reading a website.
