Google

During the google excerise, I didn't know how to access google scholar before it.   I also didn't know about the plus and minus you can add in your search instead of the word and or to not include  the search from searching for other things.  This will help me in this class when searching for my semester long research project about Down Syndrome, and to look for different articles for the alternative viewpoints paper, and possibly to find better articles to use.  This will help in other classes when I'm trying to get background information on certain things, I will know how to better find results that will be useful for me.  In a real life situation, I will also know if the information I find will be as reliable versus when I did a more broad search and didn't use the special tools.
