Kiddle - a Visual Search Engine for Kids

Kiddle - a Visual Search Engine for Kids | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it
From www.kiddle.co - November 27, 2014 4:37 PM
Kiddle - search engine for kids with illustrated results and safe search.
Beth Dichter's insight:

Check out this new search engine called Kiddle. It is a visual search engine designed for children. What makes it different?

1. Most search results provide a large thumbnail. This image will help children differentiate some results.

2. The font size. Kiddle uses a large size of Ariel, a font that helps with readability.

3. Sites are filtered and are family friendly.

4. Kiddle is privacy oriented. No data is collected and logs are deleted after 24 hours.

If you work with young students, or have young children at home this search engine is worth checking out.

A kid friendly search engine complete with pictures. This would be great for young learners and ELLs.

Leap.it - A New Visual Search Engine

Leap.it - A New Visual Search Engine | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it
From leap.it - August 25, 2014 11:02 PM
Leap.it - a whole new take on search. What are you looking to discover? Try it now!
Beth Dichter's insight:

A new search engine is now available. It is called Leap.it and as the image above shows, it is a more visual search engine than many. You can use the search engine as is, or you can create an account which allows you some additional privledges, including the ability to create a "perspective" where you can bring together a variety of sites in one location.

When reviewing the Terms and Conditions it is clear that students under 13 may not use the app without permission from parents. For more information on this issue take the time to read the Terms and Conditions.
