This is the first time I really panic. The exams are coming.
Ok, I have learnt from the past two weeks about how to evaluate internet content
Firstly, it is important to lookout for the relevance and currency of an internet resource.
Basically, we need to identify the date of the posting as well as the date of the latest update.
I have chosen Mothers Against Videogame Addictions and Violence (MAVAV) as my evaluation resource.

Next, we must also identify whether the resource content are relevant. We need to make sure that the
content stays on topic. The content shouldnt deviate too much from the main context.
Lastly(not actually, because i'm leaving some for my next post), it is important to check whether the
links on the website or materials are still updated. Some links are broken due to website movements.
ITS ME .
