- Abstract
This study entered "ultrasound", "education", and "nanometer" into search engines in English, Chinese (traditional, and simplified), Japanese, Korean, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, and Russian on two internet search engines to find differences in the searching results between 2007 and 2009. The search for the three words stood for well-developed technology, educational resources, and developing science, respectively. The results showed that there were large differences in the numbers of hits. Furthermore, the numbers of educational websites are increasing in the world. The results pointed out that most countries steadily increase the educational resources. Through the multilingual content of websites and translation tools, the educational resources are increasing rapidly.
