All Aboard Google Chrome
By Mrs. HouleSlide2
It is time to visit the Internet. You are going to jump onto Google
Chrome to learn how to use the web browser tools to get around. Along the way you
will learn Internet terms such as
World Wide Web, WWW, hyperlink, hotspot, URL, web browser, web page, website, and home page.
All Aboard! Slide3
The World Wide Web (WWW) is a group of web pages. The web pages are joined together to make a web of information that anyone in the world can see. Facts, pictures, videos, and games are just a few of the things on the WWW.
What is the World Wide Web?Slide4
The web pages are joined by hyperlinks. A
hyperlink is a spot on a web page that, when clicked, will display a web page, document, video, sound clip, or file. Sometimes it is called 'link' for short.
Word
hyperlinks often are underlined or are in a different color. Sometimes hyperlinks are pictures. In this case, they are called hotspots.
How are the web pages joined together? Slide5
Just as you and I have a home address that tells people where we live, a web page also has a home address. This address is called a
Uniform Resource Locator or URL for short.
Where are the Pages on the Web? Slide6
To view web pages on the Internet, you need special software called a web browser. Internet
Explorer, Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox are three of the many web browsers available.

What
is a Web Page, Website, or Home Page? Slide10
When thinking about web pages
and websites, it is helpful to think of pages in a book. A website is like a book, and a web page is one of the pages in
the
book. Put simply, a web page is a document on the web. However, if you want to get "high tech", a web page is a single file written using code such as HTML.
What is a Web Page? Slide11
A website is a collection of web pages on the World Wide Web. Sometimes it is called a
site for short.
A
website is like a book that has many pages called web pages. Just like a book, websites are stored in a special spot. However, unlike a book on a library shelf, websites are stored on
servers. Most websites are about a topic. For example, the Disney website is all about Disney movies,
products, and shows. The Ford Motor Company website is about cars and trucks they make.
What is a Website? Slide12
Home page is one of the most confusing terms because it has two different
meanings. In one case a home page is the web page displayed after opening
a
web browser.However, a home page is also a web page that is the starting point for a website. In this case the home page is like the front cover of a book.
