Google Challenge

Did you know the longest river in Great Britain is the Severn? Did you know the name of the Israeli Secret Service was Mossad? Can you tell us who played JR Ewing on the TV show Dallas? It was Larry Hagman. We got all our answers from the Internet.

The Google Challenge is a scavenger hunt for information on the World Wide Web. It is fun way to learn how to use the Internet and search engines. Students are given a series of questions and asked to identify keys words to use for a search. We then enter those key words and find answer.


Google Challenge is an exercise we do every day as a part of Computer Camp. A lesson in information literacy that we can use in our every day lives.
