Have you ever read something that you suspected was fake news?  In this week’s reading you will learn about strategies for determining if a source is credible.  One of those strategies is the CRAAP Test.  

  • Currency:  Is the information up to date?
  • Relevance:  Is the information relevant to your research needs?
  • Authority:  Who is the source of the information?
  • Accuracy:  How reliable and truthful is the information?  Can the information be verified?
  • Purpose:  Why does the information exist?

How can the CRAAP Test help you when you look at news and articles in the future?
