Some of this material has been updated and is available through the web sites that accompany my books Learning to Use the World Wide Web and Learning to Use the Internet .
The Internet is used by millions of people throughout the world. They use it to search for and retrieve information on all sorts of topics in a wide variety of areas including the arts, business, government, humanities, news, politics, recreation, and all areas of the sciences. The Internet is used for person to person communication through electronic mail, discussion groups, or Usenet News, it's used for getting or sharing information, and used for commercial and business transactions. This is no surprise since the Internet was crated as a means to share information. It is, after all, a network.
We can apply these same methods of distributing information and communication to teaching. The Internet can be used to distribute information, provide access to resources used both in and out of the classroom, and provide the means for collaborative projects and study.
The World Wide Web (WWW) is a part of the Internet, but it's not a collection of networks. Rather, it is information that's connected or linked together, like a web. You access this information, basically, through one interface or tool called a Web browser.
There are over 20 million users of the WWW and more than half the information that's transferred across the Internet is accessed through the WWW. Through a computer to terminal connected to a network which itself is connected to the Internet, and through the use of a program to browse and retrieve information that's part of the World Wide Web users have access to a wide variety of services, tools, information, and opportunities.
All this activity is possible because tens of thousands of networks are connected to the Internet and exchange information in the same basic ways.
What is the Internet? We'll look at it from three points of view.
Folks communicate with each other through e-mail. To do this you need a program that can send and receive e-mail. The mail is sent and received using Internet e-mail addresses.
An individual's address has the form
local-address@domain-name
Where local-address is often a user's login name.
For example:
ernie@oregano.mwc.edu hostmaster@internic.net
postmaster@any-domain-name
Sometimes you'll see addresses of the form
coco%jojovm.bitnet@brownvm.brown.edu coco%jojo.ffolo.edu@vm.tcs.tulane.edu
In these cases the local address is handled by a gateway through the domain name to the right of the @. A gateway is a system that provides information transfer between the Internet and another type of network.
There is no single central directory listing e-mail addresses. So finding an e-mail address often poses a problem.
Here are a few ways to find someone's e-mail address:

http://www.yahoo.com/Entertainment/People/Indices/
http://www.rpi.edu/Internet/Guides/decemj/icmc/culture-people-lists.html
gopher://yaleinfo.yale.edu:7700/11/Internet-People
With so many people having access to e-mail it's reasonable that groups are formed to discuss certain topics. There are over 6,000 such groups on all sorts of topics. Individuals exchange information with a group through electronic mail. To see a listing of some try these references
Choose Internet Services --> newshub (Usenet)
There is a staggering amount of information on a wide variety of topics on the Internet. Some of it is very practical; it can be used for business, research, study, technical purposes, and access to the services and information provided by professional organizations. This includes documents, government information, data, on-line bibliographic searches, articles, publications, and software.
There is an increase in the use of the Internet for commercial applications. This includes researching and using financial and economic data, business applications such as marketing and buying items of all types, and making services available for a fee.
Other types of information include travel recommendations and news, medical and health information, weather reports, entertainment listings, library holdings, museum exhibits, and sports news. You're able to tap into university and other libraries throughout the world, museums, commercial publications, archives of software for many different types of computer systems and databases of information dealing with topics such as art history, extragalactic data, literature, and molecular biology, to name a few.
Almost all of this information is shared free of any charges except what you pay to access the Internet. Sharing information and resources is at the basis of the Internet.
Carrying on secure business transactions on the Internet, which includes charging for information, is becoming more commonplace. One of the fastest growing sectors of work on the Internet is in the area of commercial applications. As Internet use becomes more available and common, it's being viewed as a viable means of doing business and marketing.
All sorts of things available on the WWW and in lots of different formats: data, documents, images, programs, sound files. Essentially, if something can be put into digital format and stored on a computer then it's available on the WWW. Tim Berners-Lee who started the WWW project at CERN wrote in the document About the World Wide Web, "The WorldWideWeb (W3) is the universe of network-accessible information, an embodiment of human knowledge." (By the way, that document is available on the WWW by using the URL http://www.w3.org/hypertext/WWW/WWW-we'll say more about URLs a little later on.)
Through the WWW you can find information about all sorts of products, information about health and environmental issues, government documents, and tips and advice on recreational activities such as camping, cooking, food, gardening, and travel. A little bit of exploring will show you the wide range of information and types of information available.
A few starting points.

From a technical point of view.
The Internet is a network of tens of thousands computer networks. These computers and networks communicate with each other by exchanging data according to the same rules, even though the networks and computer systems individually use different technologies.
The Internet is a network connecting thousands of computer networks. Each network on the Internet has a unique address, and the computer systems making up a network have an address based on the network's address. At a basic level the addresses are numeric, a sequence of four numbers separated by periods. An example is 192.65.245.76. You don't need to memorize numeric addresses, they can also be specified as names such as oregano.mwc.edu.
The Internet is a packet-switched network. Networks on the Internet agree to communicate by the Internet protocol (IP).
Information is broken into packets which contain the address of the destination and the address of the sender. The packets are passed from one network to another until they all arrive and are reassembled into a message.
Each piece of information passed around the Internet contains the sender's address and the delivery address. As information is passed around the Internet each of the networks decides whether to accept it or pass it on. Once it's accepted within a networks, it's the network's job to get it to a specific computer system.
The Internet is designed so the computer systems within one network can exchange information with computers on other networks. The rules that govern this form of communication are called protocols. Using the same protocols allows different types of networks and computer systems to communicate with each other.
This means a computer system or network has to be able to transform information from its own form into the form(s) designated by the protocols, transform information from the protocol's form to its own form, and it has to be able to send and receive information in that form. Two protocols used are Internet Protocol (IP) and Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). You'll often see these mentioned together as TCP/IP when dealing with the software needed to make an Internet connection.
The networks on the Internet use hardware or a device called a router to communicate with other networks.
Each computer system with a direct connection to the Internet has to have the hardware and/or software to allow it to work with packets. This usually means either a network card with TCP/IP software is in the computer you use or get a direct connection by using PPP (Point to Point Protocol) or SLIP (Serial Line Internet Protocol) software and a modem. If you're using a modem, but not using PPP or SLIP then you probably don't have a direct connection to the Internet, but you're contacting one which does.) It's up to the individual computer systems to take care of sending and receiving packets.
Each node on the Internet has a numeric address called its IP address. Additionally most sites also have a name called the fully qualified domain name. These names are usually 3 or 4 strings separated by dots (periods). The names are associated with numerical IP (Internet Protocol) addresses
domain name IP Address
oregano.mwc.edu 192.65.245.77
nssdca.gfsc.nasa.gov 128.183.10.4
askhp.ask.uni-karlsruhe.de 192.67.194.33
These domain names are part of an e-mail address and also used to access Internet services and resources.
To send electronic mail to someone you need to know their Internet address. For nodes that are directly connected to the Internet this address is usually
login-name@domain-name
To access an Internet service or resource you usually start a program, such as Gopher, and give the address of a remote site or service that will interact with the program you start. For example,
gopher twinbrook.cis.uab.edu
gopher gopher.tc.umn.edu
More generally, access to Internet services and resources is specified as a URL or
Uniform Resource Locator. Several have been presented. Some examples are
gopher://twinbrook.cis.uab.edu
http://www.mwc.edu/ernie/lrn-net.html
Be careful that the names you type are correct in terms of upper or lower case of letters, spelling, and punctuation.
The most general form of a URL is
service://doman-name-of-site-supplying-service/full-path-name-of-item
In order to access the Internet you need hardware and software to either
become connected to a network as an Internet site-called an IP connection
become connected to another computer which is an Internet site-called a serial, modem, or dial-up connection.
In the former case you need the software/hardware to be able to exchange packets with the systems on the Internet. This gives you a connection that allows you to work with the Internet in both a text and graphical mode. This is done in essentially two ways: a direct connection to a network from your computer which has a device installed called a network card with TCP/IP software, or a dial-up connection where your computer has a modem and software for SLIP or PPP. With either of these you've got access to all the services and resources on the Internet.
If you have a serial or dial-up (not IP) connection you can access Internet services and resources only in a text mode. Typically that involves using a terminal or using a modem to dial a larger system with a connection to the Internet.
Gopher has been one of the most popular tools for navigating the Internet. It was developed at the University of Minnesota, the source code is available for a variety of computers, and is relatively easy to install and use.
The gopher system was designed to deliver documents in a networked environment. The user works with a hierarchical menu system to retrieve information. The software operates according to a client/server model. You start a client on your local system which communicates with a server. The server returns either menus (directory list) or documents.
The menus and documents can reside anywhere on the Internet. Furthermore the documents can be one of a variety of types: file, directory, CSO phone book. BinHexed Macintosh file, DOS binary archive, uuencoded file, a telnet or tn3270 session, some sort of image file, or a index-search server.
Gopher is very easy to use. At each stage you're presented with a menu or a document. When you have a menu, select an item. When a document is displayed you can browse it, save it to a file, print it, or mail it to an Internet address. It's a good way to distribute information and gain access to a variety of recourses.
Once an item is retrieved it can be displayed, saved to a local file, printed, mailed to a user, or downloaded to the user's system.
The "home" gopher server, the first one, is at University of Minnesota. From there you can reach gopher servers throughout the world. Or if you have a gopher client on your system then you can access it by "pointing" your gopher to that site. How you start the Gopher on your computer depends on which type of gopher you're using.

The World Wide Web
"Information networks straddle the world. Nothing remains concealed."-Günther Grass (b. 1927), German author. Interview in New Statesman & Society (London, 22 June 1990).
"The WorldWideWeb (W3) is the universe of network-accessible information, an embodiment of human knowledge. It is an initiative started at CERN, now with many participants.
It has a body of software, and a set of protocols and conventions. W3 uses hypertext and multimedia techniques to make the web easy for anyone to roam, browse, and contribute to." -- Tim Berners-Lee
Linkname: The World Wide Web Initiative: The Project; URL: http://info.cern.ch/
Owner(s): None
A hypertext networked information system started at CERN, The European Laboratory for particle Physics in Geneva, Switzerland.
A system to give a uniform means of accessing all the different types of information on the Internet.
You concentrate on what you want, rather than how to get it.
You work in a hypertext or hypermdia environment. You follow links by selecting underlined, bold-face, or colored text, icons, regions, or images by using the arrow keys on a keyboard or using a mouse. The links are presented in context of some document or image.
Home Page for Global Campus, http://www.csulb.edu/gc/
How the WWW Works
The WWW project was started to give a single means of access tot he services and resources on the Internet.
You access the WWW by using a program called a web browser.
Some common ones are
Lynx Text-only.
Mosaic Text and graphics, need a full Internet connection.
Netscape Text and graphics, most popular web browser.
You use a broswer to contact or access a site on the WWW. The item you retrieve is called a Web page. The starting point for a particular site or person is called a home page.
The browsers are fundamentally the same. They give hypertext access to the services and resources on the Internet so that you only need to select a title, phrase, word, or icon.
The browsers are called WWW clients. They take your commands and send them to computer known as a server. The server interprets the information from the client and sends a response back to the client, which then displays information for you.
This operates according to a specific protocol or set a rules. The name of the protocol is http (HyperText Transport Protocol).
The rules or language used to create a Web page is called html (Hypertext Mark-up Language).
Each link on a page are represented to and interpreted by http clients as a Uniform Resource Locator or URL. The URL is the favored way of specifying items on the Internet.
What a delightful thing is the conversation of specialists! One understands absolutely nothing and it's charming.-Edgar Degas (1834-1917), French painter, sculptor. Quoted by Daniel Halévy, 31 Jan. 1892, in Degas Letters, Appendix (ed. by Marcel Guerin, 1947).
Hypertext, Hypermedia
Some means of presenting or accessing information.
Linear or random access: select one of many, then select the next, and so on. For example, e-mail
Hierarchical. Menu system. For example Gopher menus.
Non-linear. Hypertext
The path through a "document" is a matter of choice for the reader. There usually is a means of traversing the document in a linear manner, but the reader-at selected points-can move to other parts of the document or other documents. Also, a movement in one direction can be reversed.
Working with Netscape
Netscape is a Web browser that gives a graphical user interface-usually with accompanying text-to the World Wide Web (WWW).
You select links by using a mouse. Point and click!
When you start Netscaep you'll see the Home Page for your version of Netscape. It varies from place to place. Here's the Home Page at Mary Washington College.
The Netscape Navigator Window: Menu Items, Icons, Location, Directory Buttons, Contents
First Row-Menu Commands
Across the top you'll see a row of words called menu commands, each representing a pulldown menu.
You choose any of these by moving the mouse pointer to the word and clicking on it. To look at the Help menu, for example, move the pointer by using the mouse to Help and click on it. A menu will be displayed. Here's a brief description of what you can expect from each.
Menu Command Description
File This allows you to open another window to use with Netscape, open a location or URL, open a file for viewing on your computer system, save the current page in a file in your directory, mail the current page to an Internet address by e-mail, print the current document, or close the current window.
Edit Contains the usual Edit commands such as cut, copy, and paste. Also contains an item to find a string, a word or a phrase, in the current document.
View The items on this menu allow you to reload a copy of the current document or page, load images in case the images on a page weren't loaded automatically, refresh the current page, view the source (html) version of the current page.
Go These items take you to different documents or pages you might have viewed during the current Netscape session. Netscape keeps a list of pages (the history list) you've been through to get to the current document. You can go back to the previous page, forward to a page you've just come back from, or take a look at the current history list. You can select any item by pointing to it with the mouse and clicking on it. Clicking on "Stop Loading" halts the connection that's attempting to bring something to the Netscape window; useful if it's taking too long to load something.
Bookmarks Netscape lets you save links to places on the WWW you'd like to return to in this or other sessions. A bookmark in Netscape means the same thing as bookmark in Lynx. Choose this to add an item to your bookmark list, to view your bookmark list and then choose an item form the list, or to delete items from the list of bookmarks.
Options This menu lets you specify a number of things related to the way items are displayed, the items that are displayed, and other options such as you e-mail address. You can control what's shown on the screen and how Netscape works with your network and computer system..
Directory This contains a list of items on the WWW you might want to look at. Many are accessible through the directory buttons discussed below.
Help Choose this to get help about using Netscape. Includes a link to a very useful handbook which contains a tutorial for using Netscape and an explanation of the commands you can use with Netscape
Icon Explanation
Back Takes you back to the previous document, if there is one.
Forward You can use this only if you got to where you are now by
pressing Back. You'll be taken to the previous document.
Home Takes you to your home page.
Reload This reloads the current document.
Images You use it if images aren't displayed automatically and you'd
like to see the images in the current page.
Open Click on this to open a URL. A dialog box will pop up on
the screen, you type in the URL, and press the button labeled Open to access the URL.
Find Click on his to find a string, one or more words, in the
current page or document. A dialog box will appear, type the string to find, and then click on Find.
Print Print the current document.
Stop Clicking on the Stop sign stops the loading or attempt to
load a URL.
Location
This box, just below the icons contains the URL for the current document or page displayed on the screen.
The N
Netscape has a large N in the upper right-hand corner. It changes color and looks like its pulsating as Netscape loads a document or follows a hyperlink. That change in color or pulsating lets you know Netscape is doing something. You can't give any other commands to Netscape Navigator while the N is pulsing. If it's taking too long to make a connection or retrieve a document, you can click on the N and interrupt the connection or stop the transmission. You won't leave Netscape Navigator.
The Directory Buttons
The buttons located just below the "Location:" item can be used to get quick access to some special collections of information available through the World Wide Web. All of these are also available by selecting the menu item Directory.
Title Description
What's New! A list of new services and resources available on the World Wide Web. This list is updated daily.
What's Cool! A selected collection of interesting sites on the World Wide Web.
Handbook A guide to help you use Netscape.
Net Search This takes you to a page with a list of tools you can use to search for items on the World Wide Web. Examples of using the tools are also provided.
Net Directory A directory of Internet services and resources available on the World Wide Web.
Newsgroups An interface to Usenet News.
Directory Buttons in a Netscape Navigator Window
Scroll Bar
The scroll bar is on the far right of the window. You use it and the associated arrows to move through the document.
.
Moving Around a Document
You move around or through a document by using the vertical or horizontal scroll bars on the right and bottom of the window. Use the vertical scroll bar to move up and down in the document, and use the horizontal scroll bar to move right and left. Each bar has an arrowhead on each end. You can click on these to move in the direction they indicate. Clicking on the arrowhead pointing down moves the window down one line in the document. Clicking on the up arrow has a similar effect, but the movement is up. Each scroll bar also has something called a scroll box within it. If you click on the scroll box you can move very quickly in the direction it is moved. Clicking on a region of the scroll bar on one side or the other of the scroll box moves you one window in that direction.
Getting OnLine Help
Clicking on the menu command Help will open a menu from which you can choose the type of help document you'll need. You can also click on the button labeled Handbook.
Following Hyperlinks
The general rule for following a link is to move the mouse pointer or hand to the item and click on it. The links are represented in all sorts of forms: underlined text, images, icons representing sound files, or portions of larger objects such as maps. The links represent URLs, or pointers to other items. The items can be in the same document, on your system, or anywhere on the Internet. You'll be able to tell when you've come across a hyperlink by watching the pointer. When it turns to a hand you know you've moved it to a hyperlink. Click and follow the link!
Saving, Printing, Mailing a Document
Choose the File command menu from the top line. You'll see items to choose for saving the current document to a file on disk and printing the document. Some versions-for example, the one for XWindows under UNIX-also give you the option of emailing the current document. When you choose any of these a dialog box is opened and you fill in the appropriate information: to save a file, name the file the document will be saved to; to print a document, click the item that starts the printing; to email the document, fill in the address to which the document will be sent. You'll be able to choose how you want to save, print, or mail the document: either as a HyperText document with all the information about the links or as a plain file that doesn't contain any information about links. In the latter case only the text is saved, printed, or sent by email. Saving it as a HyperText document allows it to be used by Netscape Navigator in the same form it appeared on the screen.
Searching a Document
There will be times when you'll want to search a document for a word or phrase. The steps you go through on all systems are:
If the string is in the document you'll be taken to the first occurrence of the string. To find the next one, repeat the process.
Keeping Track of Where You've Been
As you use Netscape you'll be following hyperlinks to all sorts of places. You're likely to be following many links and not be keeping track of how you arrived at a document or image. You will, however, want to return to some documents or images. Netscape, like other WWW browsers, keeps track of where you've been. It has to do so to let you use the arrow icons to go Backward and Forward. To see where you've been you can look at the History list. This is the list of the links you've followed to get to the present document. To view it click on the menu button labeled Go and then choose the item History. The History list will appear on the screen and you can choose to jump to any of the items listed.
Keeping Track of Favorite Places
When you find a document you want to return to in the future, even in a different Netscape session, you can save the URL to the item on a Bookmark List, a list of important, interesting, or favorite places to refer to at any time. It's easy to add an item to a Bookmark List. Either click on the Bookmark command menu and then choose the Add Bookmark item from the menu. The item is added to the Bookmark list!
To jump to an item on the Bookmark list click on the button of the command menu labeled Bookmarks and choose View Bookmarks from the menu. Use your mouse to select any bookmark on the list, click on it, and Netscape will take you to that item on the WWW.
Viewing Local Files
Netscape Navigator can be used to browse the Internet, and it can also be used to view files, with some restrictions, on your system. Choose the menu command File and then choose the item Open File ... A dialog box will pop up so you can enter the name of the file to view.
Opening a URL
A URL gives Netscape Navigator and other WWW browsers all the information they need to jump to a document or item. In fact, all the hyperlinks within a document are written as URLs; you don't necessarily see them, but they are there. There will be times you'll want to tell Netscape Navigator to use a URL you supply, either one on a hotlist or one you've read about somewhere else, rather than follow the hyperlinks in a document. The phrase open a URL means just that. You type the URL into a dialog box, Netscape Navigator interprets it, and gets the information or resource. A URL can represent any form of Internet resource.
To open a URL click on the icon labeled Open, and dialog box will pop up. Then type in the URL.
Browsing around the WWW
Click on the Open icon, type http://www.eng.auburn.edu/alabama/web.html
Click on any & all of the Direcotry Buttons, to find and follow links.
Click on the Directory button Net Search. Type a search string in the dialog box and press Enter or click on the button Run Query. You'll get a list of sites which match with your search string. For example, type in chili sauce and see what you come up with!
Searching the World Wide Web
"Information networks straddle the world. Nothing remains concealed. But the sheer volume of information dissolves the information. We are unable to take it all in."-Günther Grass (b. 1927), German author. Interview in New Statesman & Society (London, 22 June 1990).
The WWW makes lots of information available, and the amount of information is growing at an astounding rate.
Quite naturally some tools ( sometimes called search engines) have been developed to search the WWW and the Internet.
They're almost all based on a key word or key phrase search. Some search on the content of documents while others only search titles. Most return a list of items (URL's) whose content matches, either completely or partially, the key word(s) you've provided. The items in the list are reated by how well they match your requirements.
The list is presented as hyperlinks and you can follow those the way you would follow the links on any Web page.
You really need to experiment with a few search engines to find which you like best. Here are a few.
Some of these and others are avaialble by clicking on the Netscape directory button Net Search.

If you ain't living life on the edge, you're taking up too much space. - Evil KneivelFriday, April 4, 1997
