Goooooooooogle

Today Chris Nolan came in to talk to the class about how to use Google to find scholarly sources. I find this fascinating because I never knew that most of the sources that I was looking on the web weren't at least partly scholarly! I had never really known before this class what the different endings of websites meant, and how each had its own area that it solely focus' on. I found it very interesting to compare that I have been using for research to what I should be using! I will now be able to look for the correct sources when I have to write a research paper. What I found most interesting during this class was learning that I could disable the cookies on my computer, this is good to know so that I can do that for the computers that I share with other people, because no one wants what they have been looking up to be known by everyone else!
