Create a Webliography due by Day 7 of Week 4
A webliography is a research tool developed due to the increase in Internet resources. A webliography is a collection of on-line resources focused on a specific topic or scientific source of information. Some webliographies may simply be a list and some may be annotated. Annotated webliographies provide a small amount of information which describes and critiques the website source. A webliography can provide a resource of high quality information if the person constructing the webliography is reviewing the information for credibility the resource list will be a valuable source of information for the selected topic. Review your text for additional information on evaluating information quality.
Webliographies assist the student to understand and assimilate information assisting to bridge the gap from the literature to the writing. By annotating, or adding notes, thoughts, feelings, and comments in their own words related to the source it assists the student to think and write critically about the topic and prepares them for the writing of the paper. Often using the annotation as part of the paper and citing the source.
In this assignment students will select form the topics of data quality, patient safety, and access to health care in relation to information technology in preparation for the Week 5 Assignment. Students will search websites and complete each of the templates below for three sites. The goal of the assignment is to learn how to evaluate websites, create a Webliography and use the information obtained in the Week 5 Assignment.
