Everyday we use criteria and tools to evaluate activities in our daily lives. I can use an app on my phone or computer to tell me the nutrient informations of foods in a restaurant and then decide what is best for me to eat, what I want to eat, or how much to eat. Information you use should also be evaluted before you rely on it.

The Internet is a world of information. The number of sites and pieces of information added each year is overwhelming. You should be critical of any information you read, and this includes Internet information.

If you are buying a car, phone, or house you look at lots of descriptive information. You review sites and articles about the quality of the item and finally you may choose to make a purchase.

Your criteria may look something like this if you are buying a computer-tablet:

Size
Operating system
Cost
Storage
Software
Reviews
