6. The Internet is flooded with information on the Yellowstone supervolcano. What are two
characteristics you use to determine if Web sites will have accurate information? (4 points)

Respuesta :

Answer:

I can see that there are no choices.

You can know the accuracy of the website by:

1. knowing who wrote the information and whether he/she provided a contact address or number.

2. the purpose of writing the information and whether the writer/author is qualified to write it.

Explanation:

The Internet is an accessible and convenient tool for many people when it comes to finding useful information. However, it becomes a problem when we talk about the credibility of information it provides. So, in order to assess whether the information is reliable, it is best to assess it by using five criteria: Accuracy, Authority, Objectivity, Currency and Coverage.

When it comes to "Accuracy," the information is most likely credible if the name of the author/institution is listed there and it has a contact information. In this way, you can verify it by calling or contacting the person. This will allow you to verify whether the author is, indeed, qualified to have written the information.

So, this explains the answer.

Answer: the website will end with org. or gov. And also the author should be well known.
