Lesson 2 – Our School Network and Accessing the Internet
We take it for granted that we have access to the internet in most homes and in school, but without some devices and resources, this would not be possible. In our class, we have laptops, PCs and tablets
Do you know how these devices access the internet? Think beyond your classroom and look at the whole school. How many devices do we have in the whole school? Can you access the internet from all the devices? Can you access the internet in all areas of our school? (we sometimes struggle to get a signal.
Look at the powerpoint called Network Device Slideshow (set as a 2do on Purple Mash)
What do you have in your school?
In our school, we have a router. We have a wired and a wireless network. Check at home with an adult; do you have the same at home as you have in school? What can you find out about the network in your home? Who is your internet service provider?
Now think about the number of schools, businesses, homes etc. all over the world that want access to the internet. 12. Think about your school network and how many of these networks (or even bigger networks) there must be, all linking to the internet. Amazing!
