Yesterday ( 23/03/10 ), I attended my first lesson with my kind and friendly Infocomm Studies teacher, Mr Kent Cheong. He is our new IS teacher, and my previous IS teacher was Mr Koh. From this lesson, I learnt a whole range new things that I have always wanted to know. From the powerpoint , we learnt about the history about the Internet. It was originally started in 1969 to allow scientists from different locations to share information and to function if part of the network was disabled. The project name was ARPANET(Networking Project By Pentagon's Advanced Research Projects Agency). It originally started in 1969 with four host modes but 15 years later, in 1984, it had more than 1000 host modes. Today, there are more than 200 million host modes! Indeed, technology rapidly improves. Apart from that , I also learnt that a domain name is the text version of IP(Internet Protocol) address. The IP address is the number that identifies the computer or device connected to the Internet. I have always wondered what the IP address was and finally knew the answer after seeing through the slides. Next I also learnt about the WWW(World Wide Web). It is normally called Web. It is a collection of electronic documents from all over the world. These electronic documents can text, sounds, videos etc. We learnt that downloading is the process whereby the computer receives information from another source. The unique address for the web page is called the URL(Uniform Resource Locator). A link in a built-in connection to another web-page location. There are 9 types of basic websites, they are: Portal, News, Inforational, Business, Educational, Entertainment, Advocacy, Blog and Personal. An educational website teaches us information that is valuable to us. Last but not least, we also learnt about Web 1.0 and Web 2.0. Web 1.0 is basically the writer of a certain website requiring to constantly update the website so as to attract readers. However, Web 2.0 enables both the writer and the readers to update the website. An example is the famous Wikipedia commonly used by everyone.I had an extremely fun and enriching lesson yesterday as I learned many new stuffs.
