7. WHAT IS AN INTERNET?
 The Internet is a global system of
interconnected computer networks providing e-mail
and information from computers in educational
institutions, government agencies, and to serve
billions of users worldwide. A network is a group of
two or more computer systems linked together.

8. Common type of NETWORK:
 Local Area Network (LAN) – from one station
workstation to another within the office building,
campus or site.
 Wide Area Network (WAN) – from one locality to
another within the country.

9.  A server is a computer that "serves" many different
computers in a network by running specialized
software and storing information. For example, web
pages are stored on servers.
 When you access a web page, your computer is acting as
a client. A client runs familiar software such as web
browsers or email software, and it communicates with
the server to get the information it requires.
 In order for your browser to display a web page, it
requests the data from the server where the page is
stored. The server processes the request, and then sends
the data to your browser, where it is displayed.

11. What is WEB browser :
 is the software we need in order to find, retrieve, view
and send information over the internet.
 The World Wide Web is a virtual network of web
sites connected that let you link to many sites in the
internet. Web sites are stored on servers on the
internet, so the World Wide Web is a part of the
internet

12. The internet is the physical network of
computers all over the world.
The World Wide Web is a virtual
network of web sites connected
by hyperlinks (or "links"). Web sites are stored
on servers on the internet, so the World Wide
Web is a part of the internet

13.  Website – a site (location) on the World Wide Web, it may consist of one
or more web pages that relate to a common theme, such as a person,
business, organization or any subject. The site might also contain
additional documents and files. Each site is own and managed by an
individual or an organization.
 Web Page – web pages are actually group of electronic files stored on
computers all over the world. A vast amount of information is provided
these web pages. These pages written in the HTML “HyperText Markup
Language”, have “links” – means connection, that allow the user to
quickly move from one document to another even when the document
stored in different computers. It includes the following: Text, Graphics,
Sounds, Videos, and other files.
 HTML - The backbone of the World Wide Web is made of HTML files,
which are specially-formatted documents that can contain links, as well as
images and other media. All web browsers can read HTML files.

14.  URL - To get to a web page, you can type the URL
(Uniform Resource Locator) in a browser. The URL, also
known as the web address, tells the browser exactly
where to find the page. However, most of the time,
people get to a web page by following a link from a
different page or by searching for the page with a
engine.
 Parts of the URL: HTTP://WWW.CNN.COM
 HTTP:// – indicates that the browser and web server will
communicate using HyperText Transfer Protocol.
 WWW – indicates a resources coming from the World
Wide Web.
 .CNN.COM – called the domain name, identifies which
computer called the web server, the one who host the
site.

15. HOW TO CONNECT TO THE
INTERNET?
 Before you can access the internet, there are three things that you need:
internet service, a modem, and a web browser.
 Internet Service Providers (ISP) usually offer different levels of speed based
on your needs. If you're mainly using the internet for e-mail and social
networking, a slower connection might be all you need, but if you want to
download a lot of music or watch streaming movies, you'll want a faster
connection. You'll need to do some research to find out what the options are
in your area.
 Modem an electronic device that connects computers via a telephone line,
allowing the exchange of information.
 A Router is a hardware device that allows you to connect several computers
and other devices to a single internet connection, which is known as a home
network. Many routers are wireless, allowing you to easily create a wireless
network.

16. Types of Internet connection:
 Dial-up
 Slower than internet connection types
 Connect through existing phone lines using dial-up modems
 Must “dial up” to connect to the internet & disconnect when done
 Cannot use internet & phone at the same time
 DSL – Digital Subscriber Line
 Broadband much faster than dial-up
 Connect through phone lines but necessarily require phone lines
 “Always on” does no t require dialing up
 Internet & phone can be used at the same time

17.  Cable
 Broadband much faster than dial-up & can be faster than DSL
 Uses cable connection, but does not necessarily require cable tv
subscription
 “Always on” does no t require dialing up
 Only available when cable is available
 Satellite
 Broadband faster than dial-up but data is delayed, so it is not good for
real-time applications like gaming & videoconference
 Connect via satellites orbiting the earth
 Can be affected by rain & snow
 Does not require phone & cable lines; can be used almost anywhere in
world
 3G & 4G
 Available for mobile phones, computer & tablet computers
 Connect wirelessly through your provider’s 3G or 4G network
 Allows you to access the internet away from home even when there is no
wifi connection
 3G may not be fast as a DSL or cable connection

18. Password Safety
 Hackers often use password-cracking software that can keep testing many
different passwords until they find the correct one, and they can easily crack
weak passwords.
 Tips for Creating Strong Passwords:
 Never use personal information
 Use a longer password
 Write down your passwords
 Don't use the same password for each account.
 Include numbers, symbols and both uppercase and lowercase letters

Avoid using words that can be found in the dictionary

Random passwords are the strongest
 Create a mnemonic device
 "H=jNp2#" can be remembered as "HARRY = jessica NOKIA paris 2 #."

19. INTRODUCTION TO SEARCH
ENGINES
 Search engines are specialized websites that can
help you find what you're looking for. You've
probably heard of some of the most popular ones -
including Google, Yahoo!, and Bing - even if you've
never used them. Google is the most popular
search engine because it's the most effective at
finding what you're looking for. On average, it
produces more relevant results than Yahoo! or Bing,
and its better at organizing and filtering them.

20. Google Yourself
 Google yourself to find out what is out there. To get the most accurate and complete
search results, enter search terms such as your name, email address, home and work
address, and phone numbers in a variety of ways. Also, put quotes around your search
terms. This tells the search engine to find a specific phrase just how you wrote it, and
will make your search more efficient.
 First name and last name: “Jay Hernandez”
 First, middle, and last name: “Jay Ortega Hernandez”
 Last name followed by a comma and your first name: “Hernandez, Jay”
 Last name followed by a comma, your first name and middle name: “Hernandez,
Jay Ortega”
 Street address: “2521 Street Address Lane”
 Phone number (using no spaces or hyphens searches all instances of your number):
“9267276178”
 Email address: akosinaruto@gmail.com

21. SYNTHESIZING INFORMATION
Synthesis is very important when it comes
to finding and using information online.
Even if you've done a lot of research and
feel like you understand the topic, you have
to know how to combine it in order to
create something new. Otherwise, you won't
be able to present your message effectively.

22. Organizing your thought:
 Plan Ahead - If you're going to create a PowerPoint presentation, you
might want to organize your content into slides that are short and to-
the-point, instead of a full-page report. If you're writing a research paper
for school, think about how you're going to utilize your sources.
 Start an outline - Your outline doesn't have to be very detailed; instead,
write down just enough information to help you organize your ideas, and
visualize the final product.
 Record your ideas & Bookmark your sources
 There are two reasons you should always bookmark your sources. One,
so you can refer back to them if you need to view the information again;
and two, so you have everything you need to cite your sources properly,
such as the author and web address.

23. WHAT IS PLAGIARISM?
 Plagiarism is presenting someone else's work
as your own. It can include copying and
pasting text from a website into a project that
you're working on, or taking an idea from a
book without including a citation to give
credit to the book's author. Plagiarism is very
common, and the internet has made it even
more common.

24. Tips for Avoiding Plagiarism:
 If you use a source, cite it - To avoid plagiarism is to cite your sources. It
gives proper credit to the original authors.
 Use quotation marks when necessary - Make sure that you use quotation
marks on the source exact words instead of paraphrasing or rewriting it.
 Don’t just change a few words - To properly use another author’s idea,
you should rewrite it in your own words.
 Synthesize the information - If you focus on developing a unique point of
perspective, rather than relying on

25. WHAT IS COPYRIGHT?
 Copyright is the legal concept that works - art,
writing, images, music, and more - belong to the
people who create them. According to copyright
law, any original content you create and record in a
lasting form is your own intellectual property.
 To use, copy, or change a copyrighted work, you
need permission from the person who holds the
copyright. This permission is called a license.
