+= Search Fundamentals
 
-= Section 
+== Understanding Search Engines
 
-== First Slide 
+- Search Engines need to process large amounts of information 
+  - *Crawling*: Navigating the web to find pages and add them to the search engine's index 
+    #pause
+  - *Indexing*: Creating an index of the content they find on the web 
+    #pause
+  - *Ranking*: Filtering and ordering of the indexed web pages to return the best result for the searcher's query
 
-- Content on the first slide 
+== Basic Search Techniques
 
-== Second Slide
+- Start with specific terms related to your research topic
+- Consider variations of the keywords, e.g. synonyms and related concepts
+#pause
+- *Example*: Research paper on Covid-19 -- what are some fitting keywords?
+  #pause 
+  - Pandemic#pause, vaccination#pause, quarantine#pause, airborne disease
 
-- Content on the second slide 
+= Enhancing Searches with Flags and Symbols 
 
-= Second Section 
+== Common Search Flags 
 
-== Last slide
+- Quotation Marks (#raw("\" \"")) 
+  - Search for exact phrases 
+  - Search engine looks only for the exact sequence of characters/words 
+  - *Example*: #raw("\"covid-19 vaccination\"") returns results containing that exact phrase 
+#pause
+- Plus Sign (#raw("+"))
+  - Includes specific terms in the search 
+  - Useful when certain keywords should appear in the results 
+  - *Example*: #raw("covid +vaccination +impact") ensures that the terms #raw("vaccination") and #raw("impact") are included
+
+#pagebreak()
+
+- Minus Sign (#raw("-"))
+  - Excludes specific terms in the search 
+  - Helps to filter irrelevant information 
+  - *Example*: #raw("covid statistics -pinterest") ensures that the term #raw("pinterest") is not included in the search results
+
+== Advanced Search Techniques 
+
+- Use *boolean operators* to further refine your query 
+#pause
+- AND narrows search by combining terms 
+  - *Example*: #raw("covid AND vaccination") returns results containing both terms (in some way)
+#pause
+- OR broadens search to include either item 
+  - *Example*: #raw("covid OR influenza") returns results containing either #raw("covid") or #raw("influenza")
+#pause
+- NOT: excludes terms from the search 
+
+== Grouping Terms
+
+- Combine multiple search terms with parentheses 
+- Useful for complex queries 
+- *Example*: #raw("(covid OR influenza) AND (vaccine OR \"R value\")")
+  #pause
+  - What do we search for here?
+
+== Site-Specific Searches 
+
+- Limit searches to a specific website or domain 
+- Useful for academic resources 
+- *Example*: #raw("site:.edu covid") returns results from educational institutions
+
+= Quiz 
+
+- Find a suiting search query for the following questions: 
+#pause
+- What academic insights might you find on mastering the art of couch potato-ing?
+  #pause
+  - #raw("side:.edu \"How to become a professional couch potato\"")
+#pause
+- What bizarre stories involve aliens or Bigfoot ordering pizza or tacos? 
+  #pause
+  - #raw("(\"alien abduction\" OR \"bigfoot sighting\") AND (pizza OR tacos)")
+#pause 
+- Is there any governmental advise on how to negotiate with a squirrel? 
+  #pause 
+  - #raw("site:.gov \"how to negotiate with a squirrel\"")
