Online Research:
The Internet is a great tool for research and looking up information. However, it is important to use our Internet Safety skills when doing online research. Make sure you have your teacher or another adult's permission before doing research. Only go to approved websites to look up information.
When doing research you can do a search using keywords and a search engine. The keywords are the words you type into the search engine that describe the topic you want information for. The search engine is designed to search the Internet and create a list of websites that are closely related to your keywords. Google, Bing, and Yahoo are all examples of search engines.
The following links are all search engines good for students who are doing online research.
