Shortcut Methods for Searching

Many scholars are searching for information based on their requirement. I would like to give few shortcut methods to get valid and required information within seconds (not minute). I got this information from the University of Leads, UK through 4 MOOC Courses on “Online Learning”. I created a table with the help of the course material and my understanding. It is easy to understand. Please go through the table and attached file to get shortcut methods of searching and researching. You can try with this keywords/function to see the difference between the number of results based on content types at search bar in Google search.

            For example, if you are searching for information about the environment. If you type the word environment in Google Search Bar you will get 52, 80, 00,000 results. Many reports of various organizations and ministries are available in the form of pdf or doc. If you type the letter pdf followed by the word environment in the same Google Search Bar you will get only 2, 53, 00,000 results. It will save your valuable time to get valid information.
