[ISLMA-Share] Google Search Lesson

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

I start by having students write down their research question. I then
discuss keywords and have them brainstorm as many keywords as possible for
their topic. It might be a good idea to do one as a class with middle
school students, then have them practice with their own topic.

Next, I give them the attached half sheet and go through each example.

In the past, I have also had them write down each of their search queries
and how many results they got back.
