Tech Talk: The Internet vs. The World Wide Web

Do your students continuously interchange the terms "Internet" and "World Wide Web"? They are not synonymous! Teach your students the difference between the two! Great informational sites include:

1. Webopedia
2. How Stuff Works
3. Diffen

Quick project ideas:

• Use Inspiration or Kidspiration Software to visually map out the differences between the two.
• Use PowerPoint to create a slideshow. Divide the class into two- one half will create facts about the Internet and the other about the World Wide Web.
• Create a Spreadsheet or Word Document listing the differences between the Internet and World Wide Web.
