This week we had a very interesting session which largely focussed on the different between the internet and the web.

We discussed how the web is basically a system of servers (what we see when we go onto websites) and it is the internet that powers the web.

We discussed what the internet would possibly look like if we drew it, and were shown some images of internet visualizations that showed how the internet has changed over time.

We then thought about possible lessons we could teach in school regarding the internet, and looked at various programmes which could be used in the classroom, such as X-ray Goggles, Thimble, Codeacademy on HTML and EAK. These were some great programmes that I can definitely see myself using with my own class. They are accessible and enjoyable to use.
