Internet Evaluation Assignment 1 The web was originally designed as a medium to exchange scientific and military research data, and over time it developed into one of the most sophisticated tools of modern society. The Internet is a complex web of interconnected servers and workstations that span the globe, linking millions and millions of users throughout the world. It has become one of the fastest growing forms of communication today. But there is a dark side to this. The convenient availability of valuable and sensitive electronic information invites severe misuse in the form of biased, unaccredited, or unreliable data found therein. Compounding this problem is the unfortunate fact that there are ample opportunities for everyone to publish material on the Internet. Unlike printed resources, these Internet information resources are not critiqued and evaluated by scholars or editors, which doesn't ensure that the information you receive is accurate and useful. In this paper, I will analyze and evaluate three WebPages (www.foodfirst.org, www.soros.org and www.thenewamerican.com) assigned by my lecturer, Miss Bhavanee. I adopted several strategies and techniques to assess the information found in these sites. www.foodfirst.org is the website of Food First, an institute for food and development policy, which is a member-supported, nonprofit peoples site, information, new, website, food, first, been, organization, society, resources, page, links, internet, american, work, times, resource, level, easy, content, clearly, web, users, updated, sources, soros, quality, network, intended, time, subject, sites, provided, person, important
