search engine presentation

[Marsha Miller]

greetings from Indiana State University. i so rarely get a chance to present basic internet information anymore! but i was invited to present on 'search engines' to a counseling graduate class, 'information technology for student affairs professionals', a 3-week course packed with info! http://online.indstate.edu/courses/COUN595Y/  [login/id: guest/guest] 
i had most of 3 hours [with breaks] to go thru this info... wow!

I got a lot of good ideas/links from web4lib, so in case you need a very simple approach to search engines, take a look at http://cml.indstate.edu/~libmill/willsurf.html

note: when we got to the ISU handouts/website 'slide', we used it to do a number of sample searches before we moved on.

ps: if you want to see my portals .ppt presentation for the same class, go to http://cml.indstate.edu/~libmill/portals2nd_files/v3_document.htm

enjoy!
