Kristel SaxtonIf you teach anything about exploration, this site is a must. It’s smart, slick and cleverly done, plus has a host of great activities.

About This Site
All About Explorers was developed by a group of teachers as a means of teaching students about the Internet. Although the Internet can be a tremendous resource for gathering information about a topic, we found that students often did not have the skills to discern useful information from worthless data. -

kwag1988From Katie Andres:
This site was designed to help students develop their skills in identifying valid information found on the Internet. (I plan to use it with students in the fight against the “principle of least effort” (Devine & Egger-Sider, 2014, pps. 103-104).

kastovall8962Evaluation of Teacher Information site
Currency--Established 2006 and last updated 2014. It is current
Appropriate--Reading level is appropriate as are subjects.
Relevant--It is relevant in that several explorers listed are in our history books, but not as depicted on this site.
Bias--found no bias other than a lack of factual information
Source--three teachers that developed site
This site is great. Initially when you begin to follow links, you can easily determine that the information presented is not true. It can however be used by teachers as example of an unreliable website. The website was developed to provide a pathway for teachers to educate students on judging the reliability of a website. If used in this manner, reliable but if taken for face value and information, very unreliable. -
