Lesson 3

I did use advanced search, searching for full text entries at an easy reading level. I also found it important to "return articles by: date". That way I could avoid that articles that were quite old. National Geographic Young Explorer had some brief articles which included pictures.
I searched "volcanoes maps", then selected graphics. I got 13 results (maps) that way. Then I tried the Science tab, selected Geography & Geology, Volcanoes, Graphics. I got 154 graphics to choose from, but not specifically maps. But the maps on the list were clearly identified, so a student could scroll through the list. Seems faster to use the search function, though.

  1. Good discoveries, Gentle Reader! There are usually several ways to get to the same or similar information. Thanks for the comments.
