YOUR TASK:

Find your group from the list below, and then visit at least one of the web sites listed.

The sites have the same star rating that we have been using in class (= basic ... = specialist).

You will find a range of information to help you answer your group question, so make a note of anything important and useful.

The amount of information available on some of these sites is enormous, so you will need to be very selective!
