Web Evaluation Exercise

Examine the following three web sites:

CODOH
http://www.codoh.com/index_main.html

The Holocaust History Project
http://www.holocaust-history.org/

United States Holocaust Memorial Museum
http://www.ushmm.gov/

 

Using the Indiana University Libraries, Evaluation Web Sites as a guide, evaluate these three web sites and determine which you would use as a source of information on the Holocaust if you were writing an academic paper and could only use one web site.

Write a one page justification for your choice, addressing the matters of authority, accuracy, currency, point of view, purpose, and audience. Include an explanation for why the two sites you wouldn't use fit or didn't fit these same criteria.
