Research+Rules+for+Online+Research

Online Research Rules:
1. Use **Search Engines** to find the websites you need for research:

EX) Google, Yahoo, Bing etc. These search engines are not to be used to find answers.

EX) Teacher: "Where did you get this information from?" Student: "I got it from Google." Teacher: "Google doesn't give information, it only finds you websites to use." Student: "Oh, right. Google led me to the National Archives Website where I found my information."

2. **DO NOT** under any circumstances use __**Wikipedia**__.

This website is written by anyone who has an account with Wikipedia and the information can be incorrect. You can only use Wikipedia to look at or download images.

3. Websites that can be used for obtaining knowledge BUT **not** as a research website are:

-answers.com -about.com -wiki.answers.com -answers.yahoo.com -askville.amazon.com -sparknotes.com If you are not sure, just as the teacher!

4. Websites that are **good** for research usually end in... -edu or gov
