BUS 530: Managing People in the High Tech Environment
Related Internet Sites
The Internet is a pretty disorganized place that is getting cluttered
with out-of-date, no longer maintained sites, and broken links. Perhaps
the best way to approach it is through sites that organize topics of
interest to you. You hope you're viewing a site where persons interested
in your topic have spent time reviewing the contents of numerous other
sites and have provided links to those of value. That's what I've tried
to do here: the sites below provide good access ramps to the information
highway for high tech and human resource topics.
Anyone can put up a web site. What are the sorts of things to look
for as you scan sites to help determine whether what you are looking
at is authoritative, accurate, objective, and current? A discussion
of these criteria is available from this source: Evaluating What
You Find.
