The internet is an encyclopedic account of many topics. You can learn or
you can get frustrated. Learning how to search the internet can help you
find information quick and easy. This exercise will help you to choice
the correct word, to see if the different search engines can help you.
Some search engines are better than others. This

You are looking for animated cartoons of the plates moving. The words
that you may want to use are "plate reconstruction,"
"plate tectonics," or "geology."
See what URL’s you can locate that might help to
illustrate the principles of plate tectonics better. Use the worksheet
to help guide your survey of the internet. First look at the assigned
sites. Remember some sites change, and the search engines may not record
this change.
