How to Search the Web
I am in an online degree program. My program requires all students to take a 2 credit hour class in Internet Research. This has been very helpful to me in finding resources for homeschooling my kids and sometimes other people are impressed with what I can find on the World Wide Web. A friend of mine asked me how he could learn to do the same. Below are the links I sent him and the short descriptions I used. They were taken from the folder where I bookmarked links for lessons in my class in Internet Research. Some of the links were dead and others were particular to my degree. These seem to be the best ones for getting a general overview of how to do Internet Research. If you complete all of these, you will have done something like half of what I did for my class. It was one of the most immediately useful classes I have ever taken. Enjoy!
