 On Teaching Searching, Not Serching Itself.
The most important thing to note about this book is that it is not about how to go search the internet. It is a book aimed at people who teach classes on how to go search the internet. As such, it talks about things like which search engines to teach, analyzing your audience because what you teach a novice is different than experienced users, organizing the class, terminology, etc.
br /
br /The book is written by an experienced teacher who has further collected information from a number of other instructors who also teach how to search. This has produced a good selection of examples, anecdotes, and stories, many of which you can use in your own classes. One chapter in the book is just on such stories and some of them are quite amusing.
