Using Search Engines

In studying the topic of modern Greece, Class Saturn used a search engine to find information.

Search results can be selected and ranked because of their popularity. This means those at the top may be more useful as lots of people have used them.

However, search results may also be ranked because the website has paid the search engine money. This may mean that it is not the best website for us to use to find information. This is something we have to be careful about as it may not give us the information we need.

This means we have to check the reliability of a website. To do this, we looked at the information it included, the name of the website and whether it answered the question we were researching.

We used the information we found out to help us understand more about modern Greece.
