Dear Colleague,
Netskills will be running the workshop 'Information Skills: Is Google Enough?' at a number of venues this Autumn.
For many people Google is the one and only place to search for
information on the internet. But how do you know if the sites Google
finds are of good quality? And just how helpful is it to get several
million hits? This workshop will help you learn how to make the most
of Google, and a range of other information sources, in order to
find quality information quickly and effectively.
This workshop will give you a greater understanding of how Google
works and equip you to search it, and other sites, more effectively.
The workshop also provides you with the opportunity to explore what
else is out there, learn about new developments in searching and
think about how to evaluate web sites for quality.
Book now for the following events:
- Southampton Solent University (26th October)
- University of Newcastle (29th November)
