Editor's Notes
- #4: Teaching tip Have a student define spam. While most people hate spam and wish it would stop, explore the implications of anti-spam laws in a free trade society.
- #5: Teaching Tip Suggest to your students to acquire a professional e-mail address from Hotmail or other online service. These free services usually outlast university or employer e-mail.
- #7: Teaching tip Although not covered in the text, CC refers to Carbon Copy and sends a copy of the e-mail to everyone on the list. Blind carbon copy (BCC) does the same, except the recipients do not know who else got the message.
- #8: Teaching tip When you show a newsgroup in class, watch out for non-moderated groups. Off topic messages can appear. Stick to moderated groups like Microsoft sponsored groups. Table 2B.1 lists common news domains.
- #9: Teaching tip Page 83 of the text has good pictures of ftp in action. This is a service students have most likely not encountered. Be sure to demonstrate in class.
- #10: Discussion point Have students discuss methods to be safe and secure in a chat room.
- #11: Insider information Microsoft included Windows Messenger based on teen usage of computers. IM was one of the three most used computer programs among users under 16.
