In "How Google's PageRank Works," I provided links to articles about Google's algorithm for its search results. Well, some of those articles were heavily mathematical and overly technical. For a simpler explanation, check out "How does Google collect and rank results?" by Matt Cutts in the first ever Google Librarian Newsletter. Cutts, who works at Google, explains how search results are ranked in a way that even kids can understand. Exercises that school librarians or teachers can use to explain the concepts involved are also provided.
