GOOGLE:
To search the web for athletic training resources, go to Google and type in the following search:
"athletic training" site:.edu
What you are telling the search engine here is that you wish to retrieve sites that have the phrase "athletic training" in them, and that you want all of these sites in the results list to have a domain name that ends in ".edu" (which is the domain name designation for educational institutions). By the same token, you could type "site:.org" to retrieve only sites that are from non-profit organizations and "site:.gov" to retrieve only United States government web sites. Additionally, you could run a search as follows:
"sports medicine" site:.org
