CRAAP Test: Link

In your small groups, use the CRAAP test sheet we just reviewed to evaluate the following two websites about the pink tax:

 Website #1: “The Pink Tax: Joint Economic Committee”

https://www.jec.senate.gov/public/_cache/files/8a42df04-8b6d-4949-b20b-6f40a326db9e/the-pink-tax—how-gender-based-pricing-hurts-women-s-buying-power.pdfLinks to an external site.

 

Website #2: “The Myth of the Pink Tax” https://steemit.com/economics/@daniscib/thepinktaxmyth-b0elfzuekrLinks to an external site.

  

Rate each of the categories in CRAAP for this website. 1=bad, 2=ok, 3=good. Then give a reason why you gave it that rating.

When you get into your groups, please

Introduce yourselves to each other.

Decide on one or two people to speak for the group.

You have 15 minutes to evaluate both sites.

Afterward, we will reconvene as a whole class and the spokesperson(s) will share your group’s results.
