I learned a lot of useful things in the entire Power Searching with Google Unit.
One of the main things that I learned is that there are websites you can go to that will give you information about a website. You can type in the link to the website and it will give you publication dates, companies that support it, who it's written by, who its creator is and what company it's based off of. This can help me figure out if the website is a reliable source of information and if it has any biases.
I also learned how to use Google Scholar to find different or more specific kinds of web articles. The ones I would find on Google Scholar would be written by reliable people. I would most often use this to learn about important medical discoveries and developments or read articles written by doctors and professors.
Thanks to this unit, I can now find credible answers quickly and use Google to its greatest potential.
