Maybe I am not tech savvy, but I found this to be a very hard topic. I thought at first it might be really good in order to help my fourth graders customize their searches in case we were doing a research report, but that didn’t seem to be the case. I did explore several different sites (Scoopit, Instya and google custom search), but didn’t find them to be any better than just a plain google search. In fact I found it more confusing. I tried to do the google custom search, but after exploring it, I found that it was more geared to if you had a website already established, that you could set it up so someone can search for you. Overall I didn’t have great success with this tool.
