Improving Student Searches

I often assign students research projects as they prepare materials for a video. Sometimes they google their subject matter. Sometimes they're searching for images to drop into a edit.

Dewey Decimal was my research BFF in 11th grade. This week I found a new one, Dharmesh Shah over at Small Business Hub. He gives us 12 Quick Tips To Search Google Like An Expert. It's got too many college words for my students. But I plan on a cut-paste-adapt to pass out next week. Dharmesh says,

"The following tips are based on my own experience and things that I actually find useful. The list is by no means comprehensive. But, I assure you that by learning and using the 12 tips below, you’ll rank up there with the best of the Google experts out there. I’ve kept the descriptions intentionally terse as you’re likely to grasp most of these simply by looking at the example anyways."

Thanks Dharmesh.
