Blog #4
Internet services are things offered through the world wide web. This includes web search, web browsers, emails, and blogs. The guide to the world wide web at the end of the chapter separates websites into different groups. The groups are resources, auctions, travel, finance, fun and entertainment, government, shopping, weather, sports, news, learning, and environment. (There are more, but I don't want to list them all.) Search tools are things used in order to search the internet for specific information since the internet is so large. It makes information a lot easier to find. Search engines include google, yahoo, and metacrawler.
This week I learned more effective ways to search for things on the internet. I have been using search engines for a while now, but now I know that the more detailed and concise I can be, the better. Filling out the webhunt, although tedious, taught me a lot. I also learned about some cool websites during the webhunt.
I am still really excited about being a teacher. I recently went to a Teach for America information session and am seriously considering applying for that. It seems like it will be a lot of hard work but definitely worth it in the end.

Entering data onto your computer is done by input devices. This devices include keyboards, pointing devices and scanners. Output devices are things that turn data on your computer into information that is used as output. Example of output is text, graphics, audio, and video. These devices include monitors, printers, and projectors. Storage media are devices used in order to transfer files or programs from one computer to another. Examples of storage devices include disks (floppy, zip, and hard), compact disks, and jump drives.
The farther I get into these education classes, the more excited I get about becoming a teacher. For some reason I always said that I never wanted to be a teacher, but I honestly think that I would be great at it. These 2 education classes that I'm in right now are some of the best classes that I have taken so far at college.
I have never created a concept map before so this is definitely something new that I have learned. I believe that I will use this knowledge later on in life.
