Delivery Mode, Date and Time:

Online: Zoom Conference Call

(You will receive a joining link on email after completing registration below)

Wednesday, 26 April

13h00 - 14h00

Purpose:

Everyone knows Google as the godfather of search engines. However, as a student you sometimes need more specific results and need to dig deeper to find the required information you need. Filtering information means taking out information that cannot be used and narrow down high volumes of content.

Learning Objectives:

By the end of this training, you should be able to:

  • Filter online retrieved results when searching the web;
  • Understand search engine functionalities;
  • Know where to find and access online information not listed with search engines;
  • Identify and use specialist search engines.
