 Advanced Search Technique
❔How often does it occur to you to click on the settings cog in Google Search? Great technique to use and teach students. 
👁️Look for the cog icon in the upper right of Google Search. This will pop out a side panel of options. This gives you “Quick Settings.” Scroll down a little to “Advanced search.” 
🔎Advanced search allows you to filter your search without having to memorize all the tricks. For example, I know I can put a minus sign in front of my search term to EXCLUDE a phrase from my search. However, if you forgot or don’t know that trick simply use the “none of these words:” option in the advanced search window. 
 Sharing an Individual Page in Google Sites
👉I use Google Sites to create tutorial pages for my students. Sites is multimedia!! I can add video, pictures, text, Bitmoji’s, and more. Google Sites integrates with Google Drive. Your Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, etc… can easily embed right into the page. 📚Some research I read years ago indicated that links do not get clicked on. The data I have collected over the years has verified this. If I ask students (or anyone) to click on a link the click rate is pretty low. 👁️For this reason I try to avoid using links for anything mandatory for students to view. 💥If I need them to link to an external website I take a screenshot and hyperlink the screenshot. This way if they do not click on the link they still see the key information right on the Google Sites page. ➡️How to Share A Specific Page
🖱️Clicking the Publish button and ❗setting the site sharing persons is an essential step. 🆘However, after you add new content you need to click the Publish button again.➕ Adding a new page and publishing allows that page to be visible. 
🟣Along the top, to the left of the Publish button is the link icon. This provides you the link to the specific page you are looking at. 🖱️Click on “Copy link.” If you have not already published the page this link will be the site link not the page link. 
🔵Share this link 1️⃣ Create a site ➡️ Add a Page 👉 Publish site each time you make edits 🔴Click copy icon & share link
