General Searching Tips for Teachers: Think about ALL of the different words to describe your topic. (ex. Technology Resource Center) Use as many keywords as possible. Watch for mispelled words! If you are unsuccessful with one search engine, try using a metasearch engine. Become familiar with one search engine---and read its list of suggestions!

Site Credibility & Evaluation Intent of the Site: –Is there a hidden agenda? Is something being sold? Background of the Person or Organization Age of the Site: –How current is the information? Updated? Overall Relevant Content Design and Stability: –Is the site easy to navigate? Is it a personal site? Ads?
