 Search Engines Business Essentials 2014

More than Google!  Google Scholar – Powered by Google for scholarly info  iSeek – designed specifically for students and educators  Dogpile – searches other search engines to bring the best of the web in one handy results list  MetaCrawler (zoo.com) – meta search engines searches other major search engines  Info.com – filters other search engines Major Search Engines  Google  Yahoo  Bing  Ask  About  AltaVista

Search Properly  # 1: Choose the Right Search Tool or Technique  # 2: Use Boolean Operators  # 3: Use Advanced Search Operators  #4: Google is Not the Only Game in Town  #5: Use Metasearch Engines  #6: Search Intuitively

Boolean Operators  Boolean Operators are simple words (AND, OR, NOT or AND NOT)  Using these operators can greatly reduce or expand the amount of records returned  and (+) narrows the search because it must have both words  NOT (-) eliminates false hits  OR broadens the search

What Am I Doing? STEP #1  Search the Internet for a minimum of three articles using three different search engines. You may scan the material not read thoroughly.  Compile the data in a Google doc or a MS Word document. You may do this by simply copying and pasting the information for now. CMD + C to copy CMD + V to paste.  Site your documents by placing the URL and the search engine used at the top or bottom of the articles. STEP #2  Read more thoroughly your articles. Combine all information -- coming up with 10 main topics regarding skills students need after graduation. This may be in the same document or start a new one.  Once you compile your 10 topics your document to your partner(s) and Mrs. Dowd. STEP #3  Collaborate with your partner to determine the 10 skills you wish to present to the class.. Matching up topics you have in common.  If you don’t have 10 matching items you will have to decide which topics to include in your 10.  Create a separate document that must be shared with Mrs. Dowd. See the Rubric for additional information on the naming of this file.  You must present your findings to the class.
