12.3.2. Task 2
Learning Objectives
As part of this task, you will develop key skills in information literacy. You will learn how to identify credible sources and distinguish them from non-credible ones. By applying the CRAAP test, you will evaluate sources and explain your ratings. You will also practice proper citation techniques in a specified style, such as APA or MLA, to understand the importance of giving credit to original authors. Additionally, you will rate source credibility using the CRAAP rubric and articulate your reasoning for each rating. Through reflecting on your information choices, you will enhance your critical thinking and research skills, ultimately preparing you to navigate information more effectively in your academic work and beyond.
