Here at COERLL we value the use of technology in the language classroom. As open educators, we believe that educational materials and tools should be open. By “open”, we mean: easy to access, customizable, affordable for teachers and students, and created for the greater good of a community of educators. Unfortunately, educational technology and openness do not always go hand in hand.

If a picture is worth 1,000 words, and the average length of an English word is 5 letters, it would take you 35.71 Tweets to tell the same story you could with one shared image on social media. So why wouldn’t you just include an image?

Mia MacMeekin recently posted a new infographic that helps students learn how to determine if online resources are reliable. It is split into four sections, and each section has seven questions. The four sections are: * Who wrote it? * What is it for? * Why was it written? * When was it written? With the additional questions students should be able to determine if the site is relevant to their research, and use critical thinking skills as they come to their decision. This is an area where many students struggle, and this visual may help them become more comfortable in learning how to evaluate information.
