NetTrekker is a great search engine that limits the content and findings for student and educator web searches. Instead of googling a topic and having to sift through the hundreds of hits for quality and appropriate information, NetTrekker does the sifting for us. NetTrekker is a more refined and efficient way of searching for information, as it links students and educators to sites that have been evaluated and used by other like-minded searchers.
You should check it out and decide for yourself. The school has a free trial account for the month of November. Just go to nettrekker.com

Be sure to let Ms. Hollingsworth or Ms. Turcotte that you checked it out and let us know what you think. If enough of us like this web tool, we may be able to get it in our school. Think of all the work and learning we could accomplish if we did not have to waste time connecting to useless sites, which are often times just trying to sell us something.
