The Activity: Google Search Scavenger Hunt
Instructions
| In pairs, please find answers to as many of the following prompts as
possible. The goal is to not only find the answer, but to find them in
the LEAST number of Google Searches. Please talk through each search
with your partner before searching, and then record on a separate
document EACH search term you use, as well as how many searches each
question required. There is no reason to do these in order. Go after
the ones you find most interesting.
After 15 minutes we will come back together as a group and compare our various search strategies as a group. |
