Diigo Bookmarking


  For this assignment, I chose to use the site http://www.academicsuperstore.com/. To begin with, after evaluating it using C.R.A.A.P., I personally feel it is a good quality site. The currency is up to date. Their links all work and they even offer products to sell that were just released in 2017. The website is also relevant, it works not only for this assignment but is a good source for educators.

     Furthering my evaluation of the website, I looked into the authority aspect. The website is a ".com" and it also had contact information provided. There is even an "about us" section available for users to read. The accuracy of the website seems to be reliable. What it promotes and offers is targeted to a certain set of people, educators. The site seems to be unbiased and used for the purpose of selling these products to teachers. Finally, the website's purpose is to sell things and it goes about that well. It offers a variety of things and has several links you can click on to explore their options. 

     Overall, this site is somewhere people working in academics could find useful to visit online. It has a purpose to sell things to them that they could use in their classrooms. The site is also modern and encourages you to follow them on things such as social media, which will allow users to be even more engaged. After evaluating the site, I do feel it could be a good resource to use. They have lots of variety and options that could be potentially beneficial to educators.
