Quintura for Kids

Quintura is an interesting site that I learned about from the blog, The Educational Technology Blog. This is a search engine that acts like tag cloud/mind map mixed together.

After a search is complete a person can get the embed code to embed in their site/blog.

  1. Quintura is one of the few searche engines we allow our elementary students to use. I wish they had a broader selection of content though. Still, it's a nice starting point. Didn't know about embedding the cloud results... that could come in handy. Thanks!
