A student is frustrated by the large number of irrelevant search results for their research on "The Odyssey" using a basic internet search. They try the top few results but find they are not useful sources for their project, including Wikipedia, a golf website, and more. They realize they should have used the advanced search features taught by their teacher to better focus their search and find the most relevant information more quickly.

1. Knowledge Quest A Cyber-Space Odyssey Part Two: Searching Techniques

2. Research Project to Complete?

3. No Problem! I’ll Use the Internet!

4. Okay, I need to know more about The Odyssey.

5. What? 48,900,000 results for “odyssey”?

6. No Problem! The 1st result is always the best. Uh-oh. Mrs. H says we can’t use Wikipedia.

7. Okay. Next result should do. Well, maybe not. What does this have to do with Odysseus?

8. Well, 3rd result will be better. Golf? Odysseus had time to play golf?

9. Gee, Will I Ever Find What I Need? Obviously not at the 4th result.

10. I don’t have time to wade through 48,900,00 sites to find what I need!

11. To save time and headaches, brainstorm before you research.

12. Sigh…guess I should have listened when Mrs. B taught the Google Advanced Search feature…but DON’T tell her that!
