As outlined in the lecture, there are various types of strategies and tools that students can use to develop search phrases to find exactly what they need without mining through hundreds of results.

In this assignment, you will develop a search phrase to best locate the information posed in the prompt. Then, using at least 50 words for each search scenario, explain why you picked this approach. Finally, perform the search in question and evaluate the results. In at least 50 words, explain if your search results were what you expected and why or why not this was the case.

Example: You want to find information on the President Teddy Roosevelt.

Search Phrase developed: “Teddy Roosevelt” president

Strategy: I chose this strategy because using quotation marks around the name Teddy Roosevelt will ensure that both pieces of the name are searched for together. When quotation marks aren’t used, results showing the first name and the second name will all show up, which will populate many results unrelated to Teddy Roosevelt such as Franklin D. Roosevelt.

Search Results:

Wikipedia:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theodore_Roosevelt#:~:text=Theodore%20Roosevelt%20Jr.%20(%2F%CB%88,States%20from%201901%20to%201909.

History: https://www.history.com/topics/us-presidents/theodore-roosevelt

History: https://www.history.com/news/teddy-roosevelt-legacies

Analysis: Yes, these search results were what I expected to see based on my search. The results reflected my usage of the quotation marks as sites that discussed Teddy Roosevelt’s role as president were returned first. All of the sites included both Teddy Roosevelt’s name as well as the word president.
