Well, now it is time to talk about week 2. hmmm so far, I have just completed one post in the first discussion thread, it means I already checked the noodletools and tried some search engines.
I must say, the tools I tried do not cover my expectations so far, at least, not for my purposes. Of course, I have to continue practicing and reading more about all of them. I am kind of lazy right now and I just tried sweetsearch, iseek and surfwax and I still prefer google xD. Mr know-it-all google hehehe...Altough, sweetsearch, as it offers background of topics, gives short, concise and essential information that may help people that is just looking for concepts, definition or the big picture of the topic. That´s what I liked the most.
Even though, I think this week content is pretty important for teachers applying ICT tools to their teaching practice since a good use of search engines might enable us a good selection of resources, content and information to design materials, digital resources or even digital courses.
Still working on my week 2 task, so keep you posted people...xD
Hello, Yohimar
ReplyDeleteI quite agree with you here. All information offered for reading and assignments are very useful for us. By the way, have you tried DuckDuckGo.com?
Kind regards,
Helen
