Effective Google Searcher
Evaluating Internet Website
•Triangulate your information... which means find 3 sites that provide the same information.
•Check to see if there is an author or organization clearly marked on the site.
•Credible sites end in: .edu, .gov, .org.
•Most sites that end in .com are commercial sites and pay money to be on the internet.
•When was the information last updated? Be sure to fin d the copyright date.
•Just because a site has pretty pictures and graphics doesn't mean that is it credible!
Search Cues
•Google ignores common word(and, is, a, to, ect.)
•Use Boolean characters such as +,-,*
•"Fibonacci Sequence."
•The order of the key term words also matters.
•~(tidle) Searches synonyms.
