Week 1- Introduction to the Internet

For the first lesson, it feels like another CSE111 class. The technical terms that are being taught in CES111 appeared in the class makes me feel a little relieve.

Before I start taking this module, I am very scared that I might not be able to do well. I am very terrible with internet and computers related stuff even though for my generation, I am supposed to be good at it. 

(Just like this picture)

I am like the dinosaur who does not know much about the internet yet still enjoying the advancement that the internet brings. 

We all sure know how to use the internet and might have become an expert on it. However, I believe that not many of us know the history of internet. Internet is a huge invention. It has changed how we used to live and sparks many inventions .Now we are living in a world where it used to be just our imagination.


The mighty internet

The internet saves us a lot of trouble and time. We can find anything and everything on the internet.
Today I learnt another useful website that has TONS of data about the internet.
Now that know about it, I shall share a few websites that are useful.

This website will gives you all the data related to Singapore. It is very difficult for us to find statistics related to Singapore because we are a relatively small country and not a lot of researchers would do research on us. This website is reliable!

This is very useful for students who need to do citation! Very reliable and up-to-date!
Hopefully this will be useful to all of you!

Resources from class
I really like the videos that are shown in class. After teaching the concepts, a video that summarizes the concepts are helpful for understanding and remembering the information.
I survived the 1st week and I find it quite interesting.

Let me end this very first blog post with an interesting image.
