Web Searching Advanced

Assessed Activity 4.2 (2016) Web Searching - Advanced [2 marks]

In your web site, Create another page called search.html. Create a three column table that shows the "Search Performed", "Number of Matches" and "Advanced Searching".
Go to http://www.google.com and then click on the Advanced Search link located at the right. For the following always use the advanced search. In the "Number of Matches" column, write the number of results you get. Your goal is to get less than 500 results!
Complete the searches and for the results of the final two searches (under "Record Results"), cut the URL link from your web browser and paste this as a link under the heading "Advanced Searching". Hyperlink the searches.

Queries

Practice
1. WITH ALL: Internet Security
  - This search is bad because it will search for every web page that contains Internet OR Security
  - You will get different results if you capitalize Internet Security
2. EXACT PHRASE: Internet Security
  - The exact phrase is the best way to search because it only finds web pages with the phrase “Internet Security” . Use quotes around a phrase in a normal search to achieve the same result.
  - WITH ALL: Internet Security
3. WITHOUT: books or movies
  - This gets rid of all the web pages that are selling books or movies
  - EXACT PHRASE: Internet Security; WITHOUT: books or movies; OCCURENCES: Choose in the Title
  - This only finds web pages with Internet Security in the title of the page.
4. EXACT PHRASE: Internet Security
  - WITHOUT: books or movies; OCCURENCES: Choose in the URL; Notice that all the results have Internet Security in the web page!
5. EXACT PHRASE: Internet Risks
  - WITHOUT: books or movies; OCCURENCES: Choose in the Title
  - Use words that best describe what you are trying to find! If you get less than 500 results, you have done an excellent search!
Record Results
1. EXACT PHRASE: Internet Risks
  - WITHOUT: books or movies; OCCURENCES: Choose in the Title
  - Use words that best describe what you are trying to find! If you get less than 500 results, you have done an excellent search!
2. EXACT PHRASE: Internet Risks; WITHOUT: books or movies
  - OCCURENCES: Choose in the URL
  - This only finds webpages that have Internet Risks in the address name

Marking

Marks will be awarded based on the completeness of your submission

Week 5: Multimedia

Multimedia

Assessed Activity 5.1 (2016) Multimedia [4 marks]

Activity

Go to www.google.com and click on images. Click on the Advanced Search link.
Search for the images, sounds, and movies listed below
In your web site, create a page called multimedia.html, put a title and heading "Multimedia".

Additional information as to how to add multimedia elements to your page can be found in the relevant pages at http://wikieducator.org/VirtualMV/HTML/Basic

Instructions
- Select an object you would like to search on (I will use a butterfly as an example). Once you have found the media element add to the multimedia.html page (Note: The element should be displayed on the page not as a link).

Images

Use Advanced Google Search, EXACT PHRASE: butterfly.jpg, (or butterfly.png) This will find pictures of a butterfly
Use Advanced Google Search, EXACT PHRASE: butterfly.gif, to find animated pictures of a butterfly
Note: images need to be saved in the same folder as your html file.

Video

Use Advanced Google Search, EXACT PHRASE: butterfly.avi or butterfly.mov, This will find movies of a butterfly.
Notes:
1. As YouTube is becoming the main source of videos on the Internet it may be difficult to find relevant ones. You can use ".mov samples" to get you started.
2. HTML5 introduces the video tag, however only some video types are acceptable (mp4, WebM, and ogg). As an alternative to mov or avi you can use mp4, webm or ogg.

Audio

Use Advanced Google Search, EXACT PHRASE: butterfly.wav, This will find sounds of a butterfly
Note:
1. HTML5 introduces the audio tag, however only some audio types are acceptable (mp4, wav, and ogg).

Interactivity/Animation

Add an swf file to your web page
Research the Canvas tag, and add an example to your web page (this may be a link to a page with the canvas tag used). This needs to be more than a coloured in canvas box!
