Chapter 7

                  This chapter discussed the internet and the World Wide Web. I learned about the anatomy of a URL and the way it is set up. While reading this chapter I was introduced to different graphic formats as well. I never knew what a FTP was before reading this chapter. I read that they are sites of downloaded files.

After reading this chapter I gained many useful ideas to use while teaching. Being a future history teacher I think it will be great to stream video and audio for my students. I will definitely use graphics, audio, and videos within my teaching. I also will use discussion boards and chat rooms for further discussion. In college I have used many discussion boards and on line communication and I would love to use it while teaching high school age students as well. I can only hope that my students will have access to the internet at home to do assignments and discussions.
