Tips for using
a search engine and judging the value of the site
Open a search engine and enter the subject you are interested
in. Use exact words for the topic. For example if you want
to know about wind energy, type 'wind energy', not the more general
heading, energy. Type 'trains' not transport.
If you know the name of a person or place use it.
Sometimes adding the words 'for kids' to your topic will help get to a site designed especially for young people.
If you want the sports of Indonesia, type 'Indonesia sports' or if you want to know about the food in a country, type 'food' or 'cooking' after the name of the country.
To make sure that the site has information that will be useful you need ask these questions
First of all. Does the site look good? Is it easy to use? Can you understand it? If the answer is no, try a different site.
Who wrote the text? Is there information about the authors? Can you contact them by email?
Is the information accurate? Does it agree with information about the subject that's on other sites?
When was the page written or updated? Information should be up-to-date
