In this lesson of my CDs, while surfing the given website (http://www.si.edu/), i felt that the website is full of information. For instance, teh website contain information such as availability of movie , information on Museum ,etc.Additionally, the information provided are reliable.

Throughout teh process of doing teh portfolio..The most important lesson that i had learnt is that while evaluating internet resources we should be careful. For instance, we should not jump into conclusion that the website is what we think it will be, without knowing the criteria.

Reflections
dThis is the sixth lesson of my CDS.
hIn this lesson,i had done three evaluation on the selected webite.As i was doing the evaluation template,I felt that this time round it is easier to work on the template compared to last week template.Reason being is that i had better idea and knowledge on the criteria needed for evaluation and also the things i need to look out for to work on the evaluation.

This is the fifth leson of CDS.
dIn this tutorial, i found out that it is rather challenging to understand the points needed to evaluate the site.Futhermore throughout this lesson,i had learnt that the quality of site is not as up to standard as we think it will be and also the information provivded will not always be accurate and valuable.
