Description: Created by a library media specialist, contains guides for rating the curriculum content and graphic design of web sites.
The "WWW CyberGuide" Internet evaluation forms were developed by Karen McLachlan informally as a means of introducing the World Wide Web to novice users in 1996. Since then the Guides have been published in a book, on the Internet, and referenced in journal articles. They have been used in countless classrooms and professional in-service programs. Due to the evolvement of Web site design and content, the CyberGuides needed revision to reflect the increased sophistication of the Internet and to continue to meet the ever-growing need for critical evaluation of Web-based information. The two forms were sent to a panel of three experts along with a questionnaire. The panel members evaluated four pre-selected Web sites and then evaluated the Guides by completing the questionnaire and suggesting improvements. Following extensive revision, the Guides were sent to four hundred and sixty Ohio school librarians who were asked to evaluate the same four pre-selected Web sites using the newly revised forms. The data from the returned forms was used to assess the effectiveness of the CyberGuides as Web site evaluation tools.
