Online Navigation

I. Introduction

The manner in which requested information is collectively searched and

processed on a computer from data banks that are online is known as
Online Navigation. Years ago, the common way to access such information is
through books that are somewhat different from online searches on the
Internet. Online navigation is an attempt to be more accurate in the
provision of information on the basis of a particular word.

gather specific information and depending on a given situation. Enjoy
learning!

IV. Discussion
Online Navigation
Online navigation is becoming a perfect fit for the prevalent use and success
of the mobile era. Search engines also have a framework for providing the
best and most relevant performance. Mobile phone applications have been
introduced to smartphones for simple, easy research and faster school
assignments.

Search Engines

Search engines are automated programs designed to search for information

on the World Wide Web. Generally speaking, search results are displayed in
a line of results sometimes referred to as search engine results page.
Examples of search engines are Baidu, Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo and the
most known Google engine. Google is the most commonly known and used
search engine in the world. According to Net Market Share, 74. 54 percent of
the Search Engine Market has been acquired by Google.

Research Skills
In order to achieve or access what you are looking for, you need to improve
yourself. As the old saying goes, “Practice Makes Perfect”. Good research is a
product of multiple and continuous searches, here are some skills you can
improve or adapt to:

1. Critical Thinking – When you browse the internet, you need to think
very carefully about the information you've collected. Critical thinking
requires the ability to focus on the knowledge you have been given.

2. Data Organizing – A successful researcher is able to arrange the data he

has obtained. As you collect these data, be sure to monitor where sensitive
information is collected.

3. Research Presenting – Part of your research is actual writing, be

imaginative and insightful in writing, clarify every detail and move towards
achieving your goal.

Note that not all searches are good ones, others are considered humorous or
false. Here are some tips to find successful satirical searches.

1. If the contents of the source are too unlikely or too good to be true, then
there must be something wrong.

3
2. If the site began as a fake site for public figures, such as TV personalities
or political figures, then posted news from various sources, it's a satirical
one.

3. If the web is new and constantly pops up advertisements, then it is

satirical.

Examples of Satirical News

1. The 2 years in K-12 Curriculum for Senior High School has been
removed.

2. President Duterte resigned as the leader of the Philippine nation.

3. You can win 1 million pesos just by answering a given survey form.
