Pre Test

Today Ms Faridah went through our blogs, and our reports to make sure that we were on the right track, and I found that I was a little bit off.

Some corrections that I found interesting was my use of boolean operators. I had very interesting results when I added more boolean operators to my search keywords. From cyber bully* impact, to (cyber OR internet) and (bully* OR intimidate*) and (impact* OR effect*), I had about 10 times more results. With the first search query I had about 200,000 (rounded up), and now I have about 1,990,000. Its almost a good 10 times more, and thats a very interesting change.

I also found better resources; Thank goodness I changed my search query!


Still no reply on the forums! I might need to try even more soon. wish me luck!
