Soc 316 Web Assignment

Choose one of the Chinese philosophies we are studying in this course (Taoism, Confucianism, Buddhism, popular religion) select 10 web sites from among the web sites you have found on that topic and write a website evaluation report (not a content review).

The purpose of this assignment is to help you develop a method for taking notes of websites that provides information about the site not just the contents.  In evaluating the validity and usefulness of a site, certain kinds of information are necessary.  You have learned how to do this for books and also journal articles.  Now you will learn how to do it for websites.  This information is important in helping you decide which websites provide valuable information on topics you have chosen.  So this is meant to be in an outline form so you can easily find the information relevant to each area.  Don't write paragraphs.  Then you will have a record of the sites you have visited and won't have to look them up each time to find out if they are useful sites or not.

Use the website evaluation guide provided for writing your report. Follow the form of the guide.  Assignment is due: February 19, 2001
