Sweet Search

Losing funding for Netrekker was tough, because it was a great tool when teaching about reliability. Sweetsearch.com is a student search engine that searches a small collection of websites, but only finds librarian/teacher approved websites. I am going to test it out with my younger friends. I'll let you all know how it goes :)

  1. Bev, thanks for the mention of SweetSearch. Your students should certainly find it more useful than a traditional search engine, though some of the results may be over their head. By the end of April, we'll introduce a K-6 version of SweetSearch as well, with the hope of collecting feedback and relaunching for the new school year.
