#9 How to Be a Better Google User

Richard Byrne, of Free Technology for Teachers, is one of my library/technology heroes.  Each week he highlights tools and tips for teachers.  This week, he mashed up an older post and added some new material that I had to share with you all.  If you would like to read his original post, you can read it HERE.  He shared a few strategies to make the time you spend searching with Google more efficient and beneficial.

Here is a screenshot of the PDF that you can print and keep in your computer area of your classroom or at your own desk.

In addition to this tool, he shared an infographic that he created about alternative ways to search using Google.  Click HERE to download the infographic.

If you've decided that this is pretty cool, feel free to check out the lesson plans that Google has created to help you and your students be better 'searchers.'  

I hope that this has inspired you to search a little more smartly the next time you decide or need to 'Google' something.
