Searching online is far easier because of the availability of various search engine which provide a database of information base on the search. I usually use Google search engine which is one the most common one to utilize.
We are presently using Google Classroom, though we are open to other platforms, we found out that Google Classroom is far more user friendly, teachers and students we able to get a hang of it in the short period of time we had before went on lockdown back in March.
It is difficult to determine genuine and fake information online at times because of the vast amount of information available, so at times I personally go on gut feelings.
