#1 The fourth R is research. Everyone can learn to use online information more efficiently and effectively, whether they’re students, citizens, parents, or professionals. This book makes the case that learning how to be a better online researcher is not just a good idea but something that everyone should know how to do.

#2 Research is a skill that we all take for granted. We all use Google, and we assume we’re good at it. But online research is a critical skill for our future. We need to teach our students how to be good searchers, and how to use that knowledge to function effectively as learned searchers.

#3 There are a lot of online resources that can answer your questions, but most people don’t know how to use them effectively. They don’t know how to frame their questions and search for the answers themselves.

#4 Search engines can become more than just a simple collection of data. They can become an intelligence amplifier for you, allowing you to understand how things work and see more deeply in the world.
