I am not sure where to start with a tidbit or tip that I learned in today's module as I learned so much. There was some stuff that I was vaguely aware of (search tips, keywords, synonyms, using booleans and quotes, etc...) however some of the search strategies were actually new to me.

I probably should have been aware of the site limitation option but that one seems to have slipped past me. How convenient is that when you want to narrow down, especially on government sites.

Some of the repositories listed are new to me (and this course I think) such as the OER Metafinder, a.k.a Google for OER, a.k.a MOM (Mason OER Metafinder). Having a site that will go through multiple repositories is very helpful for overall, initial searches which you can then narrow down once you've determined keywords that will work for the search. I am currently prepping an Educational Law course for September, and though I have yet to find an OER textbook, I am having some luck finding individual readings and articles that I can use. If I can get enough of them together I can forgo a textbook altogether.

That being said, if anybody knows of a good OER that might be useful, I am open to suggestions. :-)
