Image Search

•To locate images, check a search engine that offers an image database, like Google Images

•Include your key terms as part of your search. 

•You might consider using a wildcard or truncation symbol (*). This symbol is used to help you search all the occurrences of your term without typing each one. For example, educa* includes educate, education, educating, educable, etc.

•You might also want to limit your search results to government agencies or professional organizations. If so, include site:.gov OR site:.org in your search.

•Add keywords to your search identifying terms you want to locate, such as high school OR student.

•If your keyword is a phrase, add quotation marks to it. "No child left behind" is an example of searching by phrase.

•A sample search might look like:

•reading student site:.gov OR site:.org

•Assess your search results carefully before utilizing the content.
