One topic that chapter 2 covers is the different networks. Three of the networks are home, local area and wide area. I actually have a home network. A home network is a series of computers in a home that use the same source of internet. All of the computers can actually access the same files. A Local Area Network (LAN) covers a smaller area. Sometimes this includes a school or office building. Local Area Networks can also be wireless. Most networks these days are wireless. A Wide Area Network (WAN) covers a big area which could include a school district or city. Usually a Wide Area Network is made up by several Local Area Networks.
In the last practice test and skills check I learned how to make tables with specific cells, columns and rows. I probably could have figured it out on my own, but I just never took the time. This feature of word will be helpful when I have a classroom, because I can create charts and sign-up sheets.
Last post I wrote about how I was trying to decide if I should change my major. Over the weekend I went home (Jacksonville) and talked to my parents and some of their friends. They suggested going into Recreation and leisure, because if I am unsure of teaching and I graduate with a teaching degree, then I am in a rut if I do not like it. Recreation and leisure is really exiting to me and I can always go back and get my teaching certificate. Because of all of these reasons and many more I am switching my major today.
