Life in the Oceans Week 2

Word count is at least 100 words per question and I need a reference page!

Although Web sites can be a very useful source of information, many lack the quality assurance that editors, peer-reviewers, or fact-checkers often provide for books and journal articles. So it is very important when doing research on the Web to evaluate each site carefully to ensure that you do not cite outdated, biased, or inaccurate information in your assignments.

Please evaluate the following Web sites, answering each of the questions below for each site and posting your answers as a response to this conference topic. If you wish, you may view the video

2. What types of research materials, articles, studies, etc. are available via these Web sites, and do they seem professional or scholarly, or are they more popular in nature?
