At Widener we use two charts to help us teach search engines.  One lists
six search engines and describes their characteristics.  The second
summarizes the search commands and boolean operators available with each.
We go over the charts during the class and the participants take them with
them after the class to use while they are doing their own searching.

These are located in our Web Teaching Pyramid at
www.widener.edu/libraries.html (Select "Teaching the Web".)  From the
pyramid, the charts are under "Selected Web Search Engines."
If anyone uses these as handouts, we recommend printing them out in
landscape format, as they are alot easier to read that way.

We are just about to add one on meta search engines, also.
