Week 2 Web Searching

This week we discussed several tools and search engines found in Noodletools.
Two I found of great help are Iseek education and the Unesco Archive Portal. I have already added them to the list of resources I give to my thesis students who spend a lot of time searching for accurate and update articles .

This week's assignments also made me realized how lucky some of us are to have great facilities to teach with technology, whereas others have scarce resources and still make great efforts to be creative to work under such adverse conditions.

We have shared a good number of new resources. I am a fan of Google, but Noodletools opened my eyes to a much greater variety .

My classmates posts and especially Rahmat's knowledgeable comments on some functions of Google have also made these week's discussion threads quite interesting.

    Yes..I agree with you that some of us are lucky to have great facilities to teach with technology but we are also the lucky ones to have them in our class..aren't we? we can learn a lot from them..
    NoodleTools is truly an eye-opener..it's nice to have many reliable search engines for our students..we do all the best for them..don't we?
