Principles of Information Technology Basic Internet Functions What is the Internet? The Internet is a system of interconnected computer networks that use standard communications protocols. Copyright © Texas Education Agency, 2013 Trade & Industrial Education

Before the Internet Prior to 1991, people had to physically go the library to perform research. College students spent hours and hours in the library to find information that we now can find by clicking a few times on the Internet. Can you imagine actually going to the library? Copyright © Texas Education Agency, 2013 Trade & Industrial Education

The Day of the Internet ARPAnet began researching and developing strategies in the 1960s after the Soviet Union launched satellites into outer space. The US felt threatened. The Internet was launched to the public in 1991. Copyright © Texas Education Agency, 2013 Trade & Industrial Education

Searching the Internet Search Engines A program that searches documents for specified keywords and returns a list called hits Examples Google Yahoo Bing Ask Jeeves Dog Pile MSN search Ask.com Copyright © Texas Education Agency, 2013 Trade & Industrial Education

How to Use a Search Engine When using a search engine, type in keywords. Keywords are short important words used in search engines. They narrow down the search. The results of a search are called hits. Copyright © Texas Education Agency, 2013 Trade & Industrial Education

Let’s Practice Using Search Engines Open a web browser. Type in google.com in the address bar. Google should pop up. In the search bar, type the following: Cracking knuckles problem Notice that we did not type in a question…just the keywords. The lists that appear are called hits. We will now find out if cracking your knuckles is a problem. Copyright © Texas Education Agency, 2013 Trade & Industrial Education
