(1) Navigating the Internet: A Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is the unique address which identifies a resource on the Internet for routing purposes. Know how to interpret URLs.
  • Use a "traceroute" program such as "WhatRoute" (Mac) or Neotrace (PC) to trace the route between your computer and a website outside of the United States. Include a screen shot showing a map and the text of the specific route taken when contacting the website. Compare your findings with those of others in the class. Are websites always located in the country in which they are registered? What does this show about the nature of Internet-based business and commerce?
  • Compare the connection in the CSUN laboratory with your connection at home or school. What are the IP addresses of the computers you are working with? What kind of connections are you working with (dial-up, DSL, cable, 100-Base TX (twisted-pair LAN), 100-Base FX (fiber LAN), etc.)? Compare are your connection speeds.
  • Most schools have developed Acceptable Use Policies (AUP) and have installed filters to keep student focused on education. Include text (scan or download is easiest) of your school's AUP and a description of the filters in place. If a school AUP is not available, provide a sample AUP, cite its source, and provide a link. If you are not working in a school, summarize how filters work.

Websites are usually not located in the country in which they are registered. I selected a Website from Mexico and it is located in Seattle, Washington. What this means is that the websites don’t have to be link to the country from which they are from.

The IP address of the computer I am working with is: 130.166.243.22

The IP address of the computer I worked on in the CSUN laboratory is:

The connection that I am working with at home is modem

Filters help to block offensive material when surfing through the internet. Filters allow parents to configure what kind of websites their children are not allowed to get into.

(2) Knowing your School: Teachers should have a good understanding of their school, students, and the communities they represent. Much statistical data can be gained using online resources. *TPE-tip You may wish to develop a case study of your school using this and you personal observations to meet TPE 8.
  • Develop a written profile of your school and students. Your profile should include the following:
  • School distinctive: Study your school website and discuss school history, distinctive and goals.

  • Socioeconomic status: Include maps showing the socioeconomic status (SES) of the communities contributing students to your school. Discuss two or more prominent SES characteristics of the school population.
  • School performance: Include test scores and the Academic Performance Index of your school. Discuss the academic climate of your school, including test scores, API, change in scores, dropout rate, English learners, students requiring special education, etc.
