Google Web Search- Classroom Lessons and
ResourcesThe Search
Education lessons were developed by Google Certified
Teachers to help you do just that. The lessons are short, modular and
not specific to any discipline so you can mix and match to what best
fits the needs of your classroom. Additionally, all lessons come with a
companion set of slides (and some with additional resources) to help
you guide your in-class discussions.

NOTE:
All Gmail accounts are also Google accounts. You can also create a
Google account using a different existing email, so not all Google
accounts are Gmail accounts. (If that confuses you, flip a coin and go
with the result - either works fine for what we'll be doing.)

Account address to the Lead Learner using this form:
