I don’t check my web stats very often (mostly because I don’t understand much on those pages), but I do notice the list of incoming links that come up on my WordPress dashboard.

A URL that appeared this week on that list was rather interesting. The link was from a college course and included one of my posts along with a document from the DOE and one at the NEA.

Students were to analyze the “authority” of their assigned site by answering four questions including “Is this site appropriate as a source for academic research?”.

If any of those students run across this post, the answer to that question is NO.

Thanks for visiting, but don’t tell your instructor that I helped with your assignment. :-)
