"These days, the world wide web has become the Wild West. We are faced with a seemingly endless source of information, all of it difficult to evaluate. Trusted sources can be full of ads, bad actors can slip under the radar, and seemingly questionable databases might hold a helpful treasure trove. Historian Sam Wineburg and media literacy guru Mike Caulfield are here to help with this informative, approachable guide to navigating the internet. With this illustrated tool kit, readers will learn to identify red flags, get quick context, and make better use of common tools like Google and Wikipedia that have the ability to help and hinder in equal measure"-- Provided by publisher.
