Tips on Search:
Searching online can be more effective if you include some of the following ideas:
- Narrow the search by putting more terms
- Use search 'Operators' such as AND (so every word must be included) and OR (you get results if even just one word is found
- Use Quote marks, e.g. if you type "Red Car" you will get only search results with that exact phrase
- You can limit the search to a specific site; e.g. to search all of CNN, after your search words put site:CNN.com
- When the search results come back you can use the top menu's to choose Images or Videos or News
- You can limit the search results to newer results, like in the last 24 hours or the last week
- You can find more search tips and more Operators if you look online
Another effective technique is to Save a search. In Google news, at the bottom is a link for saving your search. It works really well. You can choose to have just News searched, or the whole Web. By saving searches for things that are important to you, you get notifications later when those terms appear anywhere online. For example, if you are interested in Climate Change in California, you can do a saved search for a phrase like this:
"Climate Change" California
