Starting Points
Well, you're connected and "surfin' the net"...
Now what?
Below are links to pages designed for people new to the Internet. They
help you go from a "Net newbie" to being "Net savvy".
-
Cyber Course
Highly recommended. A free, self-paced tutorial covering many
facets of the Internet
-
Learn the Net
Another good site. Oriented towards the Macintosh, but
generally useful for all platforms.
-
The Internet Startup Kit for Windows and Macintosh
The online form of the Internet Startup Kit books from Hayden
Books. (A good site, but a little slow at times.)
-
Internet 101
Another good site for quick overviews of certain areas. Again,
it's Mac oriented, but much of it is generally applicable
-
ILC Glossary of Internet Terms
Just as it says, a site dedicated to de-mystifying all that
Internet jargon and buzzwords.
-
Introduction to the Internet for Teachers
A good starting point for educators. A quick tutorial and a
huge page of links organized by topic (Science, Math, History,
etc.)
