When You Get to Class: Roman Polanski Google Search

Do a Google search for “Roman Polanski.” Once you type in his full name, which searches are suggested by Google? For example, when I type in “Michael Jackson,” Google suggests the additional searches “Michael Jackson songs,” “Michael Jackson trial,” and “Michael Jackson quotes.” 


What happens when you add a space and another letter to your “Roman Polanski” search? When I add a space and an “n” to my “Michael Jackson” search, I see that Google suggests the additional searches “Michael Jackson net worth,” “Michael Jackson news,” “Michael Jackson number ones,” and “Michael Jackson not dead.”


Now, browse some of the sites that come up related to “Roman Polanski” to get a general idea of who he is and why he is famous. What are some of the things that you learn about him? What is different about the information from these different sites?
