Similarities and Differences:  Almost all of the engines referenced either the exact same articles, or articles written on the exact same topic at the exact same time.  Really, the only standout difference between any of the results was the Big Data | Hype Cycle for Education article returned from dogpile.  To be honest, the metasearch engine results for each engine consisted of mostly adds, with only 7 search results per page, and between 30 and 40 ad-related results for each.  At least for the topic I was interested in, Google was still the best bet, and contained the most current search results compared to Bing, which featured slightly older articles.

Thanks for reading!

1.  Make a habit of checking what’s due and when at least twice a week.  In the past, if I only checked the course once a week, I was almost guaranteed to miss something.
2. If an assignment description doesn’t seem to make sense, make sure to email the instructor immediately, as sometimes it’s difficult to express a certain degree of nuance in written descriptions.
3. Make sure to at least look over assignments before automatically saying, “I’ll do it later.”  Something that you thought would take 15 minutes can end up taking a lot longer, putting stress on you and possibly causing you to miss an assignment.

Hello, all, my name is Patrick Crouch, and I am graduating at the end of this semester with a Bachelor’s degree in computer science.  I’m from Monroe, about an hour east of Atlanta, and I currently work in the library for Stacks Maintenance (I put up books).  Good luck to everyone this semester!
