Searching the Web

synonyms acronyms polysemy single-concept principle neologisms monosemy abbreviations quasi-synonyms, or near-synonyms pseudo-synonyms, or false synonyms antonyms phraseologism hyponyms hypernyms collocation Cross- references PROBLEMS WITH USING A SEARCH ENGINE AS THE SOLE SOURCE OF INFORMATION tautonyms

Finding Research online Effective Searching Let us consider searching for information relating to 'Project-Based Learning' The Hyphen The first thing to note is the hyphen between the words 'Project' and 'Based', will every web-page relating to this subject have the hyphen in it, or will some just leave it out. If you just leave it out the search engines will find the phrase with or without the hyphen.

Finding Research online So the first search to try is  "Project Based Learning" if this returns 10,000 links then try  "Project Based Learning" "PhD Thesis"  "Project Based Learning" "Masters Thesis“  “Project Based Learning” “Masters Thesis” Declaration this may return PhD or Masters thesis on the subject you require information on.

Finding Research online To find other 'good' pages relating to your subject matter, try  "Project Based Learning Link*" for "PBL Links" or "PBL Link Page"  "Project Based Learning Portal*" for "PBL Portal" or "PBL Portal Page"  "Project Based Learning Webring*" for "PBL Webring" or "PBL Webrings"  "Project Based Learning FAQ*" for "PBL FAQ"or "PBL FAQs" or "PBL FAQL"or "PBL FAQLs"

Finding Research online If you are looking for papers relating to "Project Based Learning", try  "Project Based Learning" Bibliography  "Project Based Learning" Literature Review  "Project Based Learning" Literature Survey  "Project Based Learning" Overview  "Project Based Learning" “A Roadmap” Unlike the previous section where we were looking for 'good' pages and put the entire phrase in double quotes, in this section we are only putting the subject matter we are investigating in quotes and the rest of the terms are free text, in this way we can find pages which may not be titled, for example, "Project Based Learning Bibliography", but may be a bibliography which contain references to Project Based Learning.

Finding Research online If you are looking for a more specific topic, for example, "The Impact of the Web on Project Based Learning", try  "Impact of the Web on Project Based Learning" (unlikely)  "Project Based Learning" overview web  "Project Based Learning" survey web  "Project Based Learning" review web  "Project Based Learning" assessment web

Finding Research online Also consider web-sites which will be using the acronym for "Project Based Learning" so try "PBL" "P.B.L." Consider the acronym for "Virtual Learning Environments", it could be "VLE"or "VLEs"or "V.L.E."or "V.L.E.s"or "V.L.Es", so try "VLE*" "V.L.E*"
