Google searching like a boss

Do now: silent reading

Learning objective: how to choose google search terms to get the most useful results for our research

Success criteria:
1. We can identify contentious topics to research
2. In groups, we can collaborate to find out which words and combinations of words get us the most useful result for our interest
3. We can apply our new knowledge to our own "first" research question


Step one: select a topic which is contentious
Step two: think of all the words which go with this topic.
Step three: Try out different word combinations using google search.  Take screenshots of each combination and first page of results.
Step four: What do you notice about the differences between the results?  Look carefully at the sites on the results page.  How are they different?
Step five: sharing what each group has learnt
Step six: how can you apply this learning to your own research on the first...?
