Internet Search Tips Rachel Shankles, LMS Lakeside High School Hot Spgs, AR

1st Line of Defense Learn how to navigate the Internet well so you can be the guide for students Be aware of school rules on acceptable use of Internet for research Stay up-to-date on good sites to use by reading curriculum journals

Internet Rules for LHS Only two Internet citations per research project allowed Those sites must be.gov or.edu domains The articles must have authors listed The articles must have date for revision or when it was established

Navigation Tricks and Tips Establish uniformity in building of browser and rules Steer kids away from the search button Find a favorite search engine and bookmark the address or memorize it (Google.com is number one) Hit STOP if it is taking forever to load Guess addresses of organizations and businesses and type straight in location bar Bookmark EBSCO/Gale at home and at school Bookmark your favorite sites and those used often

The Internet is not the be all and end all of research. Unless it can be used quickly and easily to find primary source documents, it is of no use at all except for entertainment.

“ I shutter when I hear parents say they now have Internet at home so their kids no longer have to go to the library.”

Beware of G(r)eeks bearing gifts!

Good Search Engines Google.com Excite.com Northernlight.com AskJeeves.com (a natural language search) Dogpile.com Yahoo.com for commercial and entertainment purposes (a directory search)

How Search Engines Work Spiders or gobots are sent out Nightly if good search engine or weekly if poor one Dead or broken links are in your hit list if the search engine is a poor one Directory or topic searches are AskJeeves.com and Yahoo.com Boolean searches using and, or, not for most search engines use keyword searching

Search Engines Find the rectangular box to type your query or keywords into Combine search words with the +sign hooked onto the second word Use quotes around words to be found together like “Martin Luther King” Make your search string long with 3 or more words 4 Type the address of the search engine into the location bar

Good Local/State Sites Lakeside.rams.dsc.k12.ar.us

Tip of the Day Put links to Ebsco and Gale and Worldbook on your school library web site. Use the link page as the page your library computers default open on. This makes it easier and quicker for students to use the free online databases provided by the state library. It can also be reached from home without teaching a separate method for home login.
