Autumn 1

Computing systems and networks: Search engines 

Pupils will be able to:

• Explain what a search engine is, suggest several search engines to use and explain how to use them to find websites and information.
• Suggest that things online are not always true and recognise what to check for.
• Explain why keywords are important and what TASK stands for, using these strategies to search effectively.
• Recognise the terms ‘copyright’ and ‘fair use’ and combine text and images in a poster.
• Make parallels between book searching and internet searching, explaining the role of web crawlers and recognising that results are rated to decide rank.

Here are some examples of our work, where we were researching what copywrite was and creating posters- to create awareness.
