Create a 12- to 15-slide Microsoft^® PowerPoint^®presentation on a methodology you create for assessing credibility and reliability of an Internet source of CAM information. Include detailed speaker notes and reference citations.

Describe how a consumer’s attitudes and beliefs about CAM could hinder objective assessments of reliability and credibility in CAM.

Create five objective criteria to judge the credibility and reliability of a source of information on CAM.

Select a CAM therapy or modality of interest. Be sure to choose a therapy you have not used in your paper or the CAT discussion. Then, perform the following: 

• Describe the therapy.
• Examine the type of training or education that is required.
• Discuss whether a license or certification is required to practice this therapy.

Research the Internet for websites on this therapy or modality. Be sure not use  a  website from class. 

Using your criteria, review one of the websites and determine how reliable the site is for CAM information. 

• Explain how you reached your conclusion about the website. Consider using a grading scale or grid for this exercise.
• Describe steps the website could take to increase its credibility.
