Tilt is a highly interactive introduction to searching basics including finding books and articles, with an emphasis on web searching and resource evaluation.

Tutorial takers are offered a number of choices throughout the tutorial to select the topic (such as Censorship or Global Communities) so that they can learn based on a topic of their own interest. The tutorial includes a fair amount of explanatory text, followed by engaging and useful exercises in such formats of game shows, real-life-style job seeking, and an online periodical search.

Each of four modules (Selecting; Searching; Evaluating; Internet Misconceptions) offers an end-of-module quiz, the results of which can be printed or e-mailed. There is an opportunity to review before taking each quiz.

Throughout the tutorial, clicking highlighted words will bring up a pop-up box word definition. Help screens deal with basics of displaying and problems with lack of plug-ins.

Navigation within the tutorial is clear -the top and bottom headers display options for definitions, help, module concepts, and return to the beginning of the module or TILT. The look of TILT is clean, and the graphics and text are generally engaging.
