8. Contextualized Online Search and Research Skills

9. ONLINE SEARCH is the process of interactively searching for and retrieving requested information via a computer from databases that are online. Today, searches through web search engines constitute the majority of online searches (Online Search n.d. ).

10. Search engine is a service that allows internet users to search for content via the World Wide Web (WWW) . A user enters keywords or key phrases into a search engine and receives a list of Web content results in the form of websites, images, videos or other online data. The list of content returned via a search engine to a user is known as a search engine results page (SERP) (Search Engine 2019).

11. Here are the top three search engines (Chris n.d. )

12. Here are the top three search engines (Chris n.d. ) 2. Bing is the best alternative search engine to Google . Bing is Microsoft’s attempt to challenge Google in search, but despite their efforts, they still did not manage to convince users that their search engine can be as reliable as Google. Bing originated from Microsoft’s previous search engines (MSN Search, Windows Live Search, Live Search). Bing’s search engine share is between 2.55% and 12.61%.

13. Here are the top three search engines (Chris n.d. )

14. Search engines help you to l ook for something on the web , but would you able to find it, or you found something you weren’t expecting to find? Google and Bing are continually improving their search abilities (Web Searching Skills n.d. ). And you need to improve your research skills so you’ll be able to find what you are looking for quickly and easily . Some of the research skills are critical thinking, data collection, finding information on or off the internet, and analysis of information from different sources (Research Skills n.d. ).

15. Here are the few basic search techniques to follow: Think before you search. Think about the topic or question you would like to search. Think about how you would describe the topic and choose 3 or 4 keywords. Keep it simple. Describe what you want in as few terms as possible. Be specific. The more precise your search terms are, the more precise your search results will be. Avoid general or common words .

16. Here are the few basic search techniques to follow: 4. Imagine how the webpage you are hoping to find will be written . Use words that are likely to appear on that page. 5 . Capitalization, punctuation and spelling don’t really matter. In most cases, search engines will ignore capitalization and punctuation in a search and will generally auto-correct your spelling mistakes.

17. Here are the few basic search techniques to follow: 6. Narrow your search results. There are several ways to help you narrow your search results to find exactly what you’re looking for .: Use quotation marks to find exact phrases or names. Put a word or phrase inside quotes. Example: "tallest building“ Use Boolean Operators (AND, OR, and NOT) to broaden or narrow your search. o AND (+ in Google) narrows the search because it requires both terms to be in each item returned. Example: Peanut Butter +and Jam

18. Here are the few basic search techniques to follow: OR broadens the search because either term (or both) will be in the returned items. (OR gives you more!) Example : marathon OR race NOT (- in Google) narrows your search because it will eliminate any results with the second term. Example: jaguar speed -car

19. Apply filters. After you search, most search engines have filters available that will refine you search to a specific type of contact. Search a specific site. If you’re looking for a specific topic on a particular website, you can use site: to limit your search results to that site. Example: site:youtube.com or site:. gov Search for a specific filetype . If you know that you’re searching for a particular type of file use filetype : to narrow your search results to a certain type of file. Example: filetype:ppt

20. Search for a definition. If you are looking for a definition of a term, you can use define. Example : define communication Search for a time. If you are searching for a time in specific country, use time <country> . Example : time Dubai Search for social media. Put @ in front of a word to search social media. Example: @ twitter Search for a price. Put $ in front of a number. Example: camera $400

21. Search hashtags . Put # in front of a word. Example: # throwbackthursday Search for wildcards or unknown words. Put a * in your word or phrase where you want to leave a placeholder. Example : "largest * in the world " Search within a range of numbers. Put .. between two numbers. Example : camera $50..$ 100
