Boolean A La Carte

Bonnie Tijerina October 22nd, 2008

Proposed Abstract: This program will introduce participants to an alternative way to teach the Boolean Searching method. Rather than using Venn Diagrams, the session will introduce the use of a table format to create a Boolean search. Using examples, the participants will learn how to teach Boolean in a new way, one that has been tested to indicate better understanding by some than the traditional three circles. Boolean logic for searching will also be explained, and various ways to write these based on the databases and search engines being used will be explored.
