JUST THE FACTS, JACK!

Most of the time, you want objective sources.

* Look for sites -- such as encyclopedias or dictionaries -- that provide just the facts.

* Avoid sites that project bias or prejudice.

* Avoid sites that contain profanity, name-calling, or racist or sexist language.

* Avoid sites that use emotion-laden or strongly opinionated language.

* On commercial sites, look for advertisements geared toward educators. Sites with ads that target teachers are more likely to have information designed for teachers.
