IS.5 Use Search Strategies

Info search strategies (including search and browse skills)

In My Life

I can consider the suggestions made by the search engine after entering my search phrase and keywords. (AI)

In My Work

I can use the find command (CTRL+F) and a specific search phrase and/or keyword to locate relevant information within lengthy documents.

In My Education

I can apply strategies such as using quotation marks to generate exact phrase matches when searching online, on my computer, or in my cloud-based file storage system.

As a Teacher/Trainer

I can work on writing better prompts to get better results when engaging with a chatbot like ChatGPT. (AI)
