CRAAP website evaluation

The website I used, 4parents.gov I found very useful. The website had an “about us” page which showed me who was responsible for the website and who wrote the articles. Also the web site had a good list of all their sources that they used to write their article. All of the links were working perfectly so it was easy to use the website, and it showed that the website was kept up and not old.
The article I read was called Teen Mom and it was very useful for my research topic. I know the article was relevant because it showed when it was last updated, which was August 13, 2009. The article was short but it was helpful. Also it gave another website at the end that might be useful to my research topic. Overall I think the article will be useful to me when I write my research essay on teen pregnancy.
