Working with the Internet

Homework #2

This homework is due as a presentation during class. Presentations will take place each class starting October 20th. You will be assigned/volunteer for the date your presentation is due.

ASSIGNMENT:

1. Identify an area of interest to you, and find 3-5 resources/locations on the Internet related to this area of interest. These should be different locations (different host addresses), NOT JUST DIFFERENT PAGES AT THE SAME SITE.
2. Prepare a very short (1 page) written list of the 3-5 sites you have identified, with a few sentence description of what may be found at each. You will be asked to turn this in, when you give your presentation.
3. Prepare/give an oral presentation in class, of length no more than 5 minutes. This presentation should cover what the area of interest you picked is, and a description of the sites you identified, what may be found there, why they are especially cool, etc. Also, you can discuss how you found these sites, if you think it relevant.
4. Presentations will be given in the lab, and you can actually show us on-line your sites, if you choose.
