The purpose of this paper is to examine strengths and limitations that search engines (SEs) exhibit when responding to web search queries associated with the grade school curriculum,The authors employed a simulation-based experimental approach to conduct an in-depth empirical examination of SEs and used web search queries that capture information needs in different search scenarios.,Outcomes from this study highlight that child-oriented SEs are more effective than traditional ones when filtering inappropriate resources, but often fail to retrieve educational materials. All SEs examined offered resources at reading levels higher than that of the target audience and often prioritized resources with popular top-level domain (e.g. “.com”).,Findings have implications for human intervention, search literacy in schools, and the enhancement of existing SEs. Results shed light on the impact on children’s education that result from introducing misconception about SEs when these tools either retrieve no results or offer irrelevant resources, in response to web search queries pertinent to the grade school curriculum.,The authors examined child-oriented and popular SEs retrieval of resources aligning with task objectives and user capabilities–resources that match user reading skills, do not contain hate-speech and sexually-explicit content, are non-opinionated, and are curriculum-relevant. Findings identified limitations of existing SEs (both directly or indirectly supporting young users) and demonstrate the need to improve SE filtering and ranking algorithms.

搜索引擎对与教室设置相关联的Web搜索查询的响应的实证分析

本文旨在研究搜索引擎(SE)在响应与该小学课程相关的网络搜索查询时表现出的优势和局限性。作者采用基于模拟的实验方法对SE进行了深入的实证研究这项研究的结果强调,面向儿童的SE在过滤不当资源时比传统SE更有效,但通常无法检索到教育材料。所有接受调查的SE所提供的资源的阅读水平均高于目标受众,并且通常优先使用热门顶级域名(例如“ .com”)的资源。研究结果对人工干预,学校的搜索素养,以及增强现有的SE。结果揭示了对SEs的误解导致的对儿童教育的影响,当这些工具没有检索到结果或提供不相关的资源时,响应与该年级课程相关的网络搜索查询。 SE检索符合任务目标和用户能力的资源-与用户阅读技能相匹配的资源,不包含仇恨言论和色情内容,没有专栏文章,并且与课程相关。调查结果确定了现有SE(直接或间接支持年轻用户)的局限性,并表明需要改进SE筛选和排名算法。结果揭示了对SEs的误解导致的对儿童教育的影响,当这些工具没有检索到结果或提供不相关的资源时,响应与该年级课程相关的网络搜索查询。 SE检索符合任务目标和用户能力的资源-与用户阅读技能相匹配的资源,不包含仇恨言论和色情内容,没有专栏文章,并且与课程相关。调查结果确定了现有SE(直接或间接支持年轻用户)的局限性,并表明需要改进SE筛选和排名算法。结果揭示了对SEs的误解导致的对儿童教育的影响,当这些工具没有检索到结果或提供不相关的资源时,响应与该年级课程相关的网络搜索查询。 SE检索符合任务目标和用户能力的资源-与用户阅读技能相匹配的资源,不包含仇恨言论和色情内容,没有专栏文章,并且与课程相关。调查结果确定了现有SE(直接或间接支持年轻用户)的局限性,并表明需要改进SE筛选和排名算法。作为对与小学课程相关的网络搜索查询的回应。作者研究了面向儿童的,受欢迎的SE检索资源,以符合任务目标和用户能力-与用户阅读技能相匹配的资源,不包含仇恨言论和色情内容-明确的内容,不受限制,并且与课程相关。调查结果确定了现有SE(直接或间接支持年轻用户)的局限性,并表明需要改进SE筛选和排名算法。作为对与小学课程相关的网络搜索查询的回应。作者研究了面向儿童的,受欢迎的SE检索资源,以符合任务目标和用户能力-与用户阅读技能相匹配的资源,不包含仇恨言论和色情内容-明确的内容,不受限制,并且与课程相关。调查结果确定了现有SE(直接或间接支持年轻用户)的局限性,并表明需要改进SE筛选和排名算法。
