Searching WikiEducator
The "Search" function in WikiEducator is good for drilling down to content on specialised pages (i.e., talk pages). For most searches, we recommend using the Google's Search Engine, and use "WikiEducator" + the appropriate keywords that you are searching for.
 * For example: WikiEducator Learning for Content keywords bring up the following result: http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=wikieducator+learning+4+content&btnG=Search&meta=
