How to use the browse feature on the Connexions web site.

Browsing

The best way to learn about how to browse is to get a little bit of understanding and then practice (play around with the browse feature).

Content Tab reveals the Browse Content area

Browse has limited uses. After selecting an item from the “1. Browse” box; the “2. Refine” box will provide a second set of limiting choices. Often the limiting choices are the alphabet and you select a letter. When it shows the list you scroll down and select the item you want. Let’s show one practical examples: searching for an author.
