Look What's on the Web!
Students will critically evaluate websites that discuss whether tablets should replace textbooks in education. Students will utilize a rubric as well as answer questions about each site they are evaluating. Once students have evaluated the required websites, they will decide whether they support tablets or textbooks. They will prepare for our class debate by supporting their choice with evidence from the sites they evaluated.
Directions for students: Critically evaluate the following websites using the Evaluation Rubric and answer the questions to demonstrate understanding and ability to apply what you have learned. Complete a rubric and answer the questions for each site. By the end of the assignment, you will have 5 rubrics and 5 question sheets filled out.
