Google For Educators - Web Search
Web search can be a remarkable research tool for students - and we've heard from educators that they could use some help to teach better search skills in their classroom.
The following Search Education lessons were developed by Google Certified Teachers to help you do just that. The lessons are short, modular and not specific to any discipline so you can mix and match to what best fits the needs of your classroom. Additionally, all lessons come with a companion set of slides (and some with additional resources) to help you guide your in-class discussions.
Find Creative Commons Images in Google Image Search
I demand that kids use cc lic images if they don't take the pictures themselves (ie: a tiger would be tough to photograph in Maine . . .not even a real zoo to visit). While Flickr cc is good, and they have the attribution and citation down to a science, this will no doubt open up their options and give them much better search capabilities to find exactly what they are looking for to complete their multimedia projects. (Thanks for tweeting this Tim Hart!)
