★PRACTICAL 6
basically, what we going to learnt today was to evaluate the different interent information
resources and know their usefulness.
what we going to find out was the invisible web or it is call database more useful
compared to the other search facalities.
one of it is the academic gateway and the other one was the complete planet.
however, non-user can access them as well.
unlike school TP website, you must belong to the user before you can do any search.
called the "sparks-tp" web.
in fact, through this lecture of mine today.
i had come to a conclusion that i prefer using the Google search web compared to the others.
as for the Google search, i can get so many different webs and links for my research topic.
however, for the database web, they provides information that comes from books.
but they do not really provides much information like the net do.
they also have features that i have difficulties using it.
indeed, i came up with a suggestion.
i asked my little brother of age 14 years old to try using the academic gateway.
eventually, he do not know how to search.
firstly, he could not found the keywords search
and you would stil have to type what you going to search for.
this proves its so much complicated to use.
in addition, Google search provides clearer features and it is more easier to use.
lastly, i might use database on my research but not that often
as i could not get use to the features they have and i do not really like how they
provide their informtion.
website infoemation would be more easy to undertstand and more sublect link for help.
its a good experience afterall.
going for preparation for quiz tomorrow!(:
