Posted By: Nick Britton On: 10/31/2010 9:39:33 PM I'm not sure how new this is. Lately I've noticed when I'm searching for scholarly topics I now I have the option to refine my search by article date, author, publication, jurisdiction, and more on Google Scholar. Does anyone know if this is a result of the company's twenty percent program? I've heard Google allows its employees twenty percent of their work time to dedicate to pet projects of the employees' own choosing. I've been trying to think of something comparable to offer my high school creative writing seniors, who beg for independent writing time. My hesitation is how to insure and track their productivity.
