EXERCISE 2: USING INTERNET, WEBLINKS AND VIDEO LINKS FOR STUDENTS

SEARCH ENGINE

A search engine is a tool that searches the internet for information based on keywords or phrases you provide. It helps users find websites, images, videos, and other content by indexing and ranking web pages.

Examples: Google, Yahoo, Mozilla firefox etc.

URLs

A URL is a unique string that directs you to a specific resource on the internet, such as a webpage, image, or video.

when you type a URL into the browsers address bar and press enter on your keyboard, the browser will load the page associated with that URL.

LINK

A clickable text, button, or image that connects to a URL. It is often underlined and in a different color (commonly blue). When hovered over, the cursor changes to a hand icon.

NAVIGATION BUTTONS 

The forward and backward buttons allows you to move through websites you have recently viewed.The refresh button will reload the current page.

BOOKMARKS AND HISTORY

Bookmarks are saved links to specific web pages that users can easily access without having to search for them again. They act like shortcuts to websites or pages that a user visits frequently or wants to return to later.

  • Users can click a star icon in the browser's address bar or press Ctrl+D (Windows) / Cmd+D (Mac) to add a page to their bookmarks.
  • Bookmarks are typically stored in a browser’s bookmark manager or toolbar for easy access.
  • History is a record of web pages a user has visited. It allows users to quickly go back to previously viewed pages without having to remember the URL or search for the content again.

  • Web browsers automatically save the URLs of pages users visit, along with data like the time of visit.
  • The history is typically accessed by opening the browser’s history tab or menu, where it’s listed by date or website.
