I would use this site as an additional resource in a course on computer networking, after the introductory material had been presented. The tutorial could be used in association with the lecture on TCP/IP, or could be given as a reading assignment prior to that lecture. It could also be used as a supplement.
Technical Requirements:
The site is created with html, so the student simply needs a browser to access this site.
Identify Major Learning Goals:
The major learning goals are to familiarize students with the technical terms associated with TCP/IP, to help students understand the history of TCP/IP, and to teach the students about the origin of and how to use IP addresses.
Target Student Population:
The site would be good for college level or technical students.
Prerequisite Knowledge or Skills:
Students should already understand the basics of computer networks, and understand basic network terminology as well as having been introduced to the concept of the TCP/IP protocol.
