Finding educational content on the web is not always that easy. Sometimes even the most straight forward searches can provide strange results which have no correlation to the desired search topic. Kigose is a search engine that helps both teachers and students alike find educational content on the web. Kigose uses the Google search engine and gives users many options for the type of content they can look for. Users can search in many categories: web, images, video, sound, story, map, translation, and teacher. This way any student or teacher can find the content they need from language students who need translations to geography teachers who need maps for their lesson plans. Besides the Google search in the different categories Kigose provides users with filters so they can find specific articles and websites. Users can search by author, article title, website title, or website URL. Kigose gives users educational sites which they can use as study guides or part of their curriculum. Kigose is easy to use and provides many useful sites. Come and learn at Kigose.com.

Google Scholar is a similar search engine in that it focuses on educational material. How ill Kigose.com deal with similar sites? Kigose.com could have a networking category which could focus on connecting teachers and students.
