This website is a good web based website evaluation tool from Leslie University Library. The website narrows web site evaluation to step by step ways to evaluate a website into Purpose, Authority, Objectivity, Appropriateness, Currency, Responsibility, Clarity, and Accessibility. Each section tells a little bit about what scholars need to think about when evaluating a website, such as whether the site is a .gov or .edu vs a .com or .net. This would be a great tool to show to students to help them evaluate sources.
