Web Search Engine Scavenger Hunt

 

Finding things on the net:

Click on the net address box at the top of the screen and type in www.google.com, or choose another search engine that you prefer.  To narrow your search, use several keywords .  To match a certain phrase, put the phrase into double quotes. 

 

Example:

007 Movie “James Bond”

 

Also, most search engines will allow the use of + to indicate AND and – for NOT:

Example:

+007 +Movie +“James Bond” –“Roger Moore”

 

 

Find all of the answers that you can to the following questions and write them down.  If you don’t find all of them, don’t worry, it is not the end of the world.  When you are finished or have given up, type your answers into MS Word, print them out and hand them in.  For each answer, print out the source page (only one sheet with the answer for each item is required).  The printout should include the URL (the webpage address where you found the info).
