Using and Evaluating The Web For Research

10/20/09, 12:45pm, Library

In this workshop, we learned about how to use the web to evaluate sources and their credibility. Although this workshop was incredibly focused on Google and how to manipulate it to find results, a good workshop (for beginners). For those of us who knew all of this already, this was a nice solid review. The presenter went over how to effectively narrow a Google search result, use advanced search, evaluate whether or not a site is credible, and even some bogus websites. I really didnt learn anything new from this workshop, seeing as I already know how to exploit the endless power of the mighty Google, but like I said above, this workshop is good for those who are somewhat competent with Google and the web and want to learn more.
