We must evaluate websites based on different criteria.
What criteria can we use?
WIKIPEDIA
RELIABLE SOURCE??
Go to:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year-round_school
The author of Wikipedia is not an individual. It is an entire community. Anyone with an account can make changes, and sometimes it may take a while for the community to catch an error.
If you use Wikipedia to find information, always factcheck your information. Look on the bottom of the page and use the references (if available) to find out where the author found their information. Use that site as your source instead.
