Search goes beyond &#039;&#039;Google searching&#039;&#039; on the web - a search technology is any software that can help a person look through a collection of documents or media to find relevant information.

Search technology can exist on phones, tablets, and computers to help people find files and documents on their [[Device (EdTech)|device]], or they can use search technologies in apps and software to search information about their or other people&#039;s participation, such as searching through a discussion forum to see if anyone is discussing certain topics.<br /> <br /> For search technologies to work &#039;&#039;well&#039;&#039;, they need to be able to read the information. Thus, any text terms that are used for search also requires the items that are being searched to use &#039;&#039;machine-readable text&#039;&#039;. This is in contrast to [[Photos|images]] with text in them, but they were not typed or that the computer doesn&#039;t recognize the item as text or words.<br /> <br /> In a search and discovery context, documents and informational resources benefit from having additional &#039;&#039;&#039;metadata&#039;&#039;&#039; attached to each item. This includes the item&#039;s title, authorship, keywords that describe the item, its contents, any &#039;&#039;tags&#039;&#039; or &#039;&#039;categories&#039;&#039; that describe the item&#039;s contents, or any other information that describes the item. Search technologies can explore the metadata, as well as the contents of the item itself. <br /> <br /> Back to [[Educational technology|educational technology &gt;&gt;]]</div>
