Techniques That Can Be Used On Web

The first versions of WWW ((what most people call “The Web”))) provide means for people around the world to exchange information between, to work together, to communicate, and to share documentation more efficiently. Tim Berners-Lee wrote the first browser (called WWW browser) and Web server in March 1991, allowing hypertext documents to be stored, fetched, and viewed. The Web can be seen as a tremendous document store where these documents (web pages) can be fetched by typing their address into a web browser. To do that, two im- portant techniques have been developed. First, a language called Hypertext Markup Languag (HTML) tells the computers how to display documents which contain texts, photos, sounds, visuals (video), and animation, interactive

Created 22 years ago on October 1st 1994 by computer scientist Tim Berners-Lee the W3 Consortium is the main standards organization for the World Wide Web. The W3 Consortium was created with the vision of “participation, sharing knowledge, and thereby building trust on a global scale” (W3C mission, 2016). As of today there is roughly 350 member organizations part of the W3 Consortium all over the world.

It helps get a better understanding about a certain topic without having to look hard for it. It is also very simple for many people to understand while reading. Though it is not a reliable source of information, it is a very good first step in getting knowledge if a topic you know nothing about and need a start getting basic information. The Robert small’s topic was a very good one for explaining this. Reliable sources are not very hard to find once you get the idea of what they are and should be. They state facts and have sources from other places too not just what the author’s biased opinion is on the

Initially, HTML coding is what makes web browsing on any web browser possible. Basically what web-browsers do is that they read certain codes or code languages. HTML or "Hypertext Markup Language" is one of the coding languages that web browsers read. The web browsers read and translate these codes, displaying and producing what we see on our computer monitors or any internet capable device. Hypertext Markup Language was invented by a man by the name of Tim Berners-Lee, he made this so he could use his coding language and have it be displayed on the World Wide Web. These coding languages were made to be used on the World Wide Web to provide data and information to scientist all around the world as well as to let these scientist collaborate together to pull information together. Although the word-wide-web had already been invented Sir Tim had to find a way to connect this information all together. When Sir Tim sent in "Information Management: A Proposal" for the essentials of the world-wide-web to CERN in Mach of 1989 in which he described a

As the computers generated a series of numbers known as the IP address, they are quite difficult for humans to remember, so the domain names were created to identify the websites rather than using the IP address. In order to use the domain name, it must first be registered. The domain names have three parts to them. For example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfX7mCHbroc. The domain name would be the blue, the top level domain is red also known as the extension and the directory where the web page would be based in green.

For instance, “In research with experts who were asked to verbalize their thinking as they worked, it was revealed that they monitored their own understanding carefully, making note of when additional information was required for understanding, whether new information was as consistent with what they already knew, and what analogies could be drawn that would advance their understanding” (National Research Council, p.18). I thought it was very interesting how they took notes on additional information and paid close attention to analogies in order to advance their understanding. The experts were able to improve their thinking by using metacognition. “Integration of metacognitive instruction with discipline-based learning can enhance student achievement and develop in students the ability to learn independently” (National Research Council, 2000, p. 21). It is very exciting to see that specific strategies like metacognition for example, are rapidly improving the students’ ability to learn and have the opportunity to improve their learning based on their understanding of what they are thinking. It hasn’t really occurred to me to think about my own thinking and how I process my thoughts. I have heard of metacognition before; however, I have never practiced the use of metacognition in a classroom like I have in this program. It is shinning a light on my thoughts and how I interpret them and use them to further my learning. We have used metacognition in class to express our thinking and our feelings towards past experiences and present experiences. I have a better idea of how my thoughts accumulate and how to improve my learning and understanding by using

By dictionary definition, meta-cognition involves a higher-order thinking that enables understanding, analysis, and control of one’s cognitive processes, especially when engaged in learning. In other words, how has your thinking evolved over the years both academically and professionally? Rather than think about how my thinking has changed, I wanted to expand on how my way of thinking relates to myself in terms of my character. How does my past thinking reflect on my present thinking? How will my future thinking reflect on my present thinking? If I was younger, I wouldn’t have given how I thought a second glance because as a teenager, my mindset was like” who cares about how I think? “my mindset was very different than what it is today. The

It can be used by a company to portray GIS to about products, available at different locations, discount on the product. This gives a static picture intended to get the customers coming in. For this purpose GPS data is of little use. In majority of cases though, GIS is used along with GPS data in

Metacognition is the awareness of ones thinking and the strategies that are being used. It enables children to be more mindful of what they are doing or learning and why and how the skills they are learning might be used differently in different situations. According to the text metacognitive development includes three kinds of knowledge: declarative; which is knowledge about facts, rules, or oneself as a learner; procedural is knowledge about how to apply rules and strategies effectively; and conditional which is

These functions are apparent in a definition of metadiscourse by Williams (1989: 27-28), a researcher into metadiscourse who works under this approach: “the language that we use when we describe what we are doing as we think and write about the content of our primary ideas, or what we want our readers to be doing as they read. It is writing about reading and writing.” Crismore et al (1993: 39) put more consideration towards the improved readability of text as the main function of metadiscourse: “for how readers should read, react to, and evaluate what they have written about the subject matter”.

During the course of nine weeks, I have studied and constructed the first of what I hope will be many Web sites. The course subjects I learned included planning the site, planning the navigation around the site, learning how to use Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), using graphics and color to enhance the site, and creating pleasing layouts. However, most important aspect of designing a Web site that I learned was to adhere to web design best practices. These best practices help to “create well-coded Web sites to strictly follow the standards set by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). The World Wide Web Consortium was organized

A work is said to be meta if it refers to itself or the conventions of the genre it is in, for example a movie about the film industry would be considered meta. In this way a good portion of Rosmarie Waldrop 's work would be meta as it is literature that repeatedly makes reference to language itself. She references the language of her work within said work but not merely as a self-conscious reference but as a way to make the reader pay as much attention to the language she uses as she did while writing. So Waldrop draws attention to how we use language as well as how we must navigate it in order to make use of it properly.

It facilitates the tasks when I cannot find any accurate information about a place that I need to map.  I would input the address in Pictometry and it gives me the location and the picture of the area. That helps me in finding whether the place is still existing or not.

metatextuality  a relationship between the text and other texts, upon which it serves as an explicit or implicit commentary.

Metadata contains the data quality information which plays important role in determining the quality of dataset and it is very useful for data producers and consumers. Metadata provides users of spatial data with information about the purpose, quality, actuality and accuracy of spatial datasets and performs the vital functions that make spatial data interoperable, that is, capable of being shared between systems. Metadata enables both professional and non-professional spatial users to find the
