active participation today, grade 7.

Since you can now identify the different parts of

a Google homepage, bring out your cellphones
so we could try this search engine to research
something while following the guidelines that
I’ll be discussing. Do you have mobile data?

That’s good. Okay, so what should we consider

in doing our research?

Step 1. Figure out what you need to know, of Step 2. Combine keywords to focus your search.
course you’ll ask yourself first, “what I need to
know about this topic” for example your topic is
a place, Baguio City. What do you want to know
about Baguio?

Then your next step is, please read number 2.

Combine keywords, for example what I want to

know about Baguio is the tourist spots, so your
keywords here are baguio and tourist spots. Yes, ma’am.
What you’re going to do now is to combine your
keywords “tourist spots in Baguio” or you can Ma’am it shows the Igorot stone kingdom.

information if it is a trusted author or not,
because not all the information that we can get
from Google are true. Did you get it?

And the last, Janna please read. Yes, ma’am.

What do we mean by this? We use the

bookmark of our computer when we wish to
save the page where we found the credible/legit
information. In adding this to your bookmark,
just click this and then check if it is already
added. Do you understand?
Yes, ma’am.
Very good! You indeed understand our
discussion for today. Since you already know
the parts of Google homepage and the basic Yes, ma’am
steps on how to use this search engine, it’s now
easy for you to research on a certain information
online and criticize if it is legit or not. Am I
right?

Excellent! I guess the activity will just be easy

to all of you. Are you all excited?
