#Your teacher will demonstrate for you how to access and organize information on the folder: follow along as she does the following

#Use a search engine to search for information - discuss with your teachers what happens when we do not give good key words
+
#Open the pages returned on each search
+
#She will demonstrate how to search for images, videos and text

#Download the resources accessed - the entire web page, image, videos, etc

#Your teacher will discuss with you how to legally download materials from the internet and how to use it correctly.
+
'''Demonstration 2'''

#Watch your teacher search for the following, "giraffe", "evolution of giraffe", "miraculous evolution of giraffe"
+
#Did you see any difference in the pages returned by the search?
+
#Does this tell you anything about how a search engine works? How can you search more effectively?

====Student activities====

This is an activity to be done in groups. If adequate internet access is there, individual activities may be done.

#Make a concept map for the topic or issue you want to research about.
+
#In groups, access the internet and download information relevant to your topic.
+
#Organize your downloaded information into folders
