Websites

If you need to search the internet for your topic, here are a few tricks.

  • Avoid clicking on anything that says: AD (usually at the top of the search)
  • Use .edu or .org to focus on reliable sources
  • Put search terms in quote marks. Example: "future of education" .org
  • Use Google Scholar if you want some serious research hits
  • Most internet sites will not provide a citation, so use the Noodle Tools "fill in the blank" for that
