MODULE 5. COMPUTER NETWORKS

C. Pre – Test :

1. What is a network? - A network is a collection of computers, communications

hardware and software linked together to allow sharing of resources and to provide a
facility for communication.

2. What do you think are the reasons why we use network? – Communion
Accessing resources ● Data and information ● Printers and scanners ● Software ●
Labour and money ● Other hardware resources Centralisation of data ● Transfer
of files ● Increased productivity ● Leisure

3. What is difference between LAN and WAN? – Local Area Network (LAN) is a
network that covers a larger area like your home while Wide Area Network (WAN)
covers a wide geographical area such as country or the entire globe.

FORMATIVE Test:

I. Direction: Choose from a peer – to – peer or client – server network.

A. Client – Server Network – because the four friends connected in a one

server.
B. Client – Server Network – because they all use a single and the same
network as server.
C. Peer – to – Peer – because the computers on local dentist office are
communicating and share resources directly with one another.
 D. Client – Server Network – because they use the same temporary network
to run the craft market for a week.

II. Create a list of network and internetworking devices.

1. 1. Repeater – A repeater operates at the physical layer. Its job
is to regenerate the signal over the same network before the
signal becomes too weak or corrupted so as to extend the
length to which the signal can be transmitted over the same
network.
2. Hub – A hub is basically a multiport repeater. A hub connects
multiple wires coming from different branches, for example,
the connector in star topology which connects different
stations.
3. Bridge – A bridge operates at data link layer. A bridge is a
repeater, with add on the functionality of filtering content by
reading the MAC addresses of source and destination. It is also
used for interconnecting two LANs working on the same
protocol. It has a single input and single output port, thus
making it a 2 port device.
4. Switch – A switch is a multiport bridge with a buffer and a
design that can boost its efficiency(a large number of ports
imply less traffic) and performance. A switch is a data link layer
device. The switch can perform error checking before
forwarding data, that makes it very efficient as it does not
forward packets that have errors and forward good packets
selectively to correct port only.
 5. Routers - A router is a device like a switch that routes data
packets based on their IP addresses. Router is mainly a Network
Layer device. Routers normally connect LANs and WANs
together and have a dynamically updating routing table based
on which they make decisions on routing the data packets.
6. Gateway – A gateway, as the name suggests, is a passage to
connect two networks together that may work upon different
networking models. They basically work as the messenger
agents that take data from one system, interpret it, and
transfer it to another system.
7. Brouter – It is also known as bridging router is a device which
combines features of both bridge and router. It can work either
at data link layer or at network layer. Working as router, it is
capable of routing packets across networks and working as
bridge, it is capable of filtering local area network traffic.

MODULE 6. INTERNET AND THE WORLD OF TECHNOLOGIES

B. Pre – Test :
1. Find a partner and list all issues and concerns regarding the
use of computers in the Education Sector.
Answer:
●Technical Problems

For online learning courses or classes requiring network access, technical

issues can cause major problems. A lost or stolen computer might prohibit a
student from logging onto a discussion forum.
●Spelling and Handwriting Skills

When students replace paper and pen with a computer for education,
handwriting skills may suffer. Adult learners benefit from increased brain
activity when writing new information by hand, particularly in subjects such
as math and chemistry. Most computer word processing programs include a
spelling and grammar check, and students might rely too heavily on the
computer to correct spelling and grammatical errors.

Cheating

Students might search online for answers to test questions or have answers
sent to their computers by other students. Students are able to access huge
amounts of information via computers and may present that information as
their own. Plagiarizing may be difficult for universities to prove or identify
because of the broad scope of the Internet and difficulty of finding all
possible sources of information.

Financial Problems

Financial problems may prohibit some students from owning a computer,

placing them at a disadvantage. Low-income college students are less likely
to have easy access to a computer and may not have learned basic
computer skills that other students learned at a young age. This puts them
at a disadvantage when college classes require heavy computer usage.

Solution – In technical problems, I suggest that it is needed to teach the

users or the students to take care for computers. It is also needed to check
it up always to computer specialists to maintain it’s maintenance.

In spelling and handwriting skills of the children, the teachers must give
some activities that don’t need computer or anything high tech devices. Not
all the time must the students use technologies.

In terms of cheating, you can also prevent it by using technology also. Give
a time limitation to each test and in Financial Problems, the essence of
sharing is important to this matter besides that the Government should
provide free technologies to some student.

 In your own words, define the internet. Internet is a

communication network that connects internetworking devices
globally. It is the main medium or high way to deliver information and
messages in this modern era.
  What have you personally used the internet for? I used the
internet personally for my studies, researches, school projects and
sending messages and information to my peers.I also used internet to
play games in my phone.

What do you think are the tools and services provided by the
internet – the tools and services provided by the internet are for
sending messages or electronic mail, for finding informations or
researches, downloading files, discussion groups, interactive games,
education and self improvement, friendship and dating, electronic
newspapers and magazines, job hunting and shopping.

What are the issues and threats using the internet? Because most
of the people today uses internet, our data and personal informations
are also at risks because most of our daily activities depends already in
internet. Some of the named threats using internet are the Spam.
Adware, Trojan, Virus, Worms, Phishing, Spyware, Keyloggers, Pharming
and Rogue Security Softwares.
