Speed Geek Presentation Topic: Google Tricks

Here is a list of tricks for Google to help you become more efficient. I am drawing a blank as I think of the many ways I use Google in my classroom. How do you use Google?


Google Search

1. Filter by Reading Level -

2. Filter Image search by color


Step 1: Go to the advanced search option for Google Images

Step 2. Once to the advanced page choose the color you want by selecting it in the options. In this case I am searching for blue even though I have not switched it from red yet in this screenshot.

Step 3: Type in your word and you will then have your topic by color choice. So my coffee search with the color blue provides me all I need!
