2nd blog Post

What did you learn? What material was new to you? What were the three most important things you learned in today's lesson/independent practice?



So far in class i have learned a lot about the internet and how it works. Like what a domain name is and what an extension is. I didn't know that the main reason sites are on top of the search is because they paid for them.
I always thought that it was because i that site had the most views therefor it was the most popular. Everything i learned was new to me. Learning that the internet search runs on a bunch of 
Algorithms. When you type something in on a search engine, key words are read and your searches are brought up. Today i learned about how wikipedia is not always a trust worthy site because anyone can change whats on there. So the best way to look something up is using bratanica the Encyclopedia.

  1. That's great James. I'm glad you learned something yesterday. The Britannica really is a great place to start your research as well.
