site to get you started on Internet basics from About.
Blackboard Introduction:
Review the following:
The Internet and the Web are not the same thing! Internet is the infrastructure that the Web uses.
The Web uses a HTTP a protocol of TCP/IP to communicate between the server and client. HTML is used to layout the information so the Browser can display the information. Refresh your memory about the Internet using my online tutorial
W3: The World Wide Web Consortium sets the standards for the Web (HTML & other Web tools)
Key People: Tim Berners-Lee (HTTP) and Marc Andresson (Mosaic, the first Web Browser.) Two people who helped change the world!
Terms you need to know:
Browser, Editor, HTML, HTTP, Internet
Homework:
You should be reading Chapter 1 & 2 in your book
Find as many resources that will help you "Keep up to speed" in class. You should be able to find at least one page full of resources. (The more resources you find, the better the grade.) Quackit, W3schools and Builder.com and Webmonkey are examples of the type of sites you should be looking for.
You will need to post an article about computers, web, Internet security or e-commerce every week!!!
Final Step:
Review in your mind everything we covered in class and remember to cover it again before you go to bed so your mind to process this information while you sleep.
