Evaluating Websites in Pennsylvania

Curriculum teams in Pennsylvania use this guide to scope evaluating websites across ELA, social studies, and library blocks. Teach domain literacy, author credentials, and redesign flags that signal untrustworthy sites. Verify all requirements against your state department of education — this page supports planning, not legal compliance.

Pennsylvania alignment lens

Most Pennsylvania districts connect evaluating websites to informational reading, research skills, speaking and listening, and digital citizenship expectations. Map one SaC module series to your local scope and sequence before district-wide rollout.

Pilot workflow

Pilot in one elementary and one secondary site, train facilitators on Orange-Coded Navigator's Guides, and collect student sourcing samples after nine weeks.
