The idea for the Internet was born from the launch of the Russian
Sputnik satellite in 1957. The US government was worried that the then
Soviet Union possessed superior technological capability and could
potentially strike the US with a nuclear missile. So it began to prepare
for the consequence. The Internet essentially began as way to
communicate if part of the country was destroyed.
In
1969 the technology was advanced enough to begin testing it at
universities and the first successful test was completed between the
UCLA and Stamford campuses in California.
It wasn't until around 1991 that the Internet was introduced for individual and commercial purposes.
Today
we see more an more users clustered around the same sites. Facebook,
Google, Apple and Amazon collectively consume most of our attention and
that's sad because there is so much more to it.

Example: I found a map that might help me learn Geography and Social Studies. https://worldmap.harvard.edu/maps/5565.
This map helps me identify ancient civilizations in a more precise way
than the maps in our book. You can also overlay other options on the
map by checking the boxes on the left hand sidebar.
I found a poster that can help me determine what a graph will look like on my graphing calculator. Since I don't really enjoy math, this poster is a fun way for me to learn how certain graphs will look like on my graphing calculator.

I found a chart titled “Macro Cheat Sheet.” This chart gives you a list of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins that may appear in your diet. This chart can help me compose a balanced meal. In Health class, we are learning how to eat healthy. One way to eat healthy is to eat balanced meals. A balanced meal gives your body the nutrients it needs to function. This nutrients can come from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. This chart also provides me with a list of foods that are a combination of carbohydrates and proteins and fats and proteins. If I use this chart, I will better understand how to eat healthy. The link to this chart is:
