What you will want to know about google and questions


When using a closed question, you are getting simple answers that other people could have answered as well, For example… What is your favorite food? mr.d'Entremont responds, ¨pizza¨ but someone else's possible favorite food could also be pizza. So in this circumstance the question would be closed.

When using an open question, you are getting specific answers that are less likely to be answered the same by a totally different person. For example… Why did you choose to teach math? Mrs.Eliot states, ¨Because I got a masters degree in math,¨Mrs.Beckum could have said a completely different reason, in this way the question is open.


You would use Google search tips to help you search more efficiently. For example… if you use quotation marks, you will get a specific search on what you stated in the search bar. If used the minus sign before your search, Google will search the word itself and not add in any other words. For the last example… If you type in Define: before a confusing word that you want defined, Google will bring up their definition and other sources that will help you clarify the meaning of your word.

  3. I like all of your examples of closed and open questions. And I like the pictures you have because it shows steps. Did you really ask Mr.D´Entremont and Ms.Elliot these questions?
