Start with your group of four.

1. The Usability/design specialist of your group must go to Google and follow the more pull down to Documents.  If you aren't a Google Doc user click on the Get started button.  Once you have an account invite your partners to join using their email addresses. Invite Ms Dooley too so that she can project your Final Answer Sheet. The group leader should copy and paste the following documents into a Google Document page:  Individual Answer Sheets     Final Answer Sheet-Group

Click on the dark blue Share tab to invite the other members of your group to work with you on this document.  Each group member chooses a role from the specialist sheets.

We will break into specialist groups: Content   Authority/Credibility     Bias/Purpose     Usability/Design

2.  Go to your email and get your invite for Google Docs.  Analyze the sites above based on the role you chose from the Role Specialist Sheets and record it on your Individual Answer Sheet in Google Docs.  Rank the sites based on your specialist role.

Next time we meet-

Return to your group of four.

3.   When everyone is done and has filled out their form you must discuss the rankings on each other's sheets and come to an agreement on how the sites should be ranked.  Then the Usability/design specialist will fill out the Final Answer Sheet.  Decide who will present your rankings to the class.  Be ready to show the class your Google Doc.

Extra Credit - When your done!
