What did you learn? What material was new to you? What were the three most important things you've learned in today's lesson/independent practice?

In College Research we learned more about keywords and the importance of their placing. I thought that despite how you place the words, the search engines still search the same words. Instead, the first word you put in the search box is considered the most important  and websites that contain that keyword will be at the top of the search results. If the placing of the keywords were reversed, the new first keyword would be considered the priority when searching for results. Since the search engines have different algorithms that search with different standards, the placing of keywords may not be as important in some search engines, but it is still important to keep in mind that it might. 

why do search engine results vary with different search engines?

What did you learn? What material was new to you? What were the three most important things you've learned in today's lesson/independent practice?

Today we learned about google's wonder wheel. When researching a topic, it is important to know about the topic so the search can be detailed and in depth, but sometimes, this is not the case. Although this usually meant researching the topic will become a complicated process, today I learned about a new tool that will help. When using the wonder wheel, google makes subcategories for you that narrows down the results. Within each subcategory is more subcategories bringing results that can be in the millions, down to the thousands, hundreds, and even less as you get deeper into the sub categories.
