This web search activity is intended to illustrate the use of web search activities to promote information competence in college students. Do not use this page to treat or prevent disease. It will not be updated as drug information changes.
Getting ready to start:
Open 2 internet browser windows. One (which you now have open) will run your test. The other can be used for looking up answers to the questions. If you are not familiar with working between 2 browsers, read on:
Adjust the size and location of the two browser pages by clicking on one of two small boxes that appear in the upper right of the screen. This enables you to read a question on Web CT and use the other browser to go look up the answer. Some students prefer to use the left box that has a bar in the bottom. Clicking here will minimize the window. To maximize the window again, click on the appropriate section of the bar along the bottom of the screen.
Some students prefer to use the middle box that has a box with a bar. Clicking here will allow you to resize the window so your two browser windows can sit side by side. Position your cursor over the edge of the window, hold down the left mouse key and drag the edge to where you want it. Move the whole window by pointing your cursor to the top bar and holding down the left mouse key to drag it.
Don't click on the right box with the X as this will close the browser. |
