#19 Rollyo

A new one for me. But thought it was great and a simple way to search through a variety of websites for topics/themes/ideas etc.
I can see plenty of uses for suing it, eg, with senior students doing particular research topics they could add a varity of websites and then search for keywords etc.
I set up one called school libraries and added some websites. I then did a broad search, literacy and found many articles/matches from the ones I had added. I then searched using the keyword e-books and came up with less (but was as I expected). Even this simple example would be a very useful example to help teach keyword searching (and being smart with what keywords chosen).
Rollyo rocks!
