Advanced Google Search Techniques

The Advanced Google Search Technique lecture was a little redundant, but I could see how it might have been relevant just a few years ago. As technology advances and becomes more pervasive, it becomes difficult to assess what counts as common knowledge and what doesn't (Reflection). Nowadays, any 7-year-old probably knows how to use the "I'm Feeling Lucky" button or Boolean search techniques, but just a few years ago that wouldn't have been true (Assessment). In teaching my classes, I'll be able to assume a greater degree of search-engine sophistication from my students (integration).
