This is a quiz that was found in the Sunday January 3 2010 Concord Monitor newspaper…. Answers are there, too. You need to read the question, and… if you KNOW the correct answer, that’s good… but you must still VERIFY that correct answer. And write out your source for that correct answer. And, MOST importantly, I want to you also write out your thinking process- especially for the questions you do NOT know the answer to. Can you eliminate any of the answers? How? And how did you search for the correct answer? Did you search the QUESTION, or did you search the possible answers?

Write it out! Be complete. A good paragraph per answer is what we are after here…

• Use Google AND Bing and at least 2 other search engines... any search engine you desire. In your paragraphs, write down which search engine you used.

• Use Search Terms that make sense. Do NOT just type/copy the entire question. Use Search Terms. Use search terms that make sense. In your paragraph, write down what search terms you used.

• Use Advanced Search methods, or at least look for .Edu sites, .gov sites and .com sites. At LEAST these 3 types of sites. You can have others, such as .org and .net. In your paragraph, write down how you searched for different domains (such as .Edu, .gov .com, etc. Those are called “domains”.)

• And... Write down the correct answer in the paragraph. Perhaps that is the last sentence in your paragraph.
