Developing Your Speech: Supporting Your Ideas Exercise 1 Subject: Using the all-in-one search site You are probably already familiar with the basic search engines like www.altavista.com,
www.northernlight.com, and www.yahoo.com.
But have you experienced www.allonesearch.com?
All-in-one search is an excellent starting place to find almost any information
that you could want. After you have selected your topic, use the many resources available online
at www.allonesearch.com to investigate
further. Did you find All-in-one useful? Exercise 2 Subject: Ask an online expert Before the Internet, we had to do personal interviews via telephone or
face-to-face. Now, we can do them via email. Go to Yahoo's experts.yahoo.com
and locate an expert pertinent to your topic. How did you meet your expert? Was your expert helpful? Exercise 3 Subject: Using online reference materials Can't afford the latest 1045-page college dictionary? Don't worry. The
good people at Yahoo have organized the best online reference materials into
a user-friendly interface. Go to dir.yahoo.com/Reference
and browse these materials. What did you find in Yahoo's directory that was especially useful to you
as you prepared for your speech? |
