Getting the Most Out of Your Google Search

Getting the Most Out of Your Google Search was another great session at the Midwest Google Summit.  I liked this session because it provides many great suggestions to make a Google search more efficient and effective with tips, tricks and search techniques.  Guiding students to learn how to search: 

• keywords or questions, 
• images, 
• considering punctuation or not, 
• how to do an advanced search, 
• use search operators (AND, OR, NOT)
• how younger students can search by using the microphone icon to verbally speak what they want to search
• how tricks to use Google to access a timer, provide a definition or spelling, the temperature or weather conditions,  time in another region, convert currency, use a calculator, research travel attractions, translate to another language, compare nutrition and more!
