It’s online, but is it on target?

Part 3

Dot-what?

Look at the site’s address. What follows the dot?

·      DOT-COM IS NOT ONLY FOR BUSSINESS, ANYONE CAN USE IT. DOT-COMS INCLUDE WELL KNOWN AND RESPECTED COMPANIES, BUT ALSO PRIVATE INDIDVIDUALS.

·      DOT-ORG USALLY INDICATES A NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATION. MANY DOT-ORGS PRESENT UNBAISED INFORMATION, BUT OTHERS HAVE POLITICAL AGENDAS, FOCUS ON DEBATABLE ISSUSES INSTEAD OF FACTS, AND MIGHT NOT PRESENT ALL SIDES OF AN ARGUMENT.

·      DOT-GOV INDICATES A GOVERNMENT WEBSITE AT THE FEDERAL, STATE OR LOCAL LEVEL. THE FEDERAL GOVERENMENT IS A GOOD SOURCE OF STATISTICS, AND IT’S SITES ARE WIDELY CONSIDERED AMONG THE MOST RELIABLE.

·      DOT-MIL IS USED BY SITES THAT ARE PART OF THE MILITARY.

·      DOT-EDU USUALLY INDICATES A UNIVERSITY WEBSITE. WHILE IT’S PUBLISHED RESEARCH IS GENERALLY CONSIDERED VERY TRUSTWORTHY, ANYONE ASSOCIATED WITH THE UNIVERSITY, WHETHER A WORLD-RENOWNED SCHOLAR OR A FRESHMAN, CAN BE GIVEN SPACE ON ITS SEVER. PROFESSORS SOMETIMES PUT STUDENT COURSE WORK UP ON THE WEB, BUT THAT DOESN’T MEAN THEY’RE VOUCHING FOT THE INFORMATION’S ACCURACY.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!
