Internet for Dummies, Wednesday 9/13, 3rd Period
The lab is set up with four computer stations in the middle of the room and desks in the back.
"Last week we talked about what the internet is, and this week we're going to learn how to get to the internet." Abby smiled and turned to a list on the white board behind her. "The main kind of connections we're going to study and try out today are dial-up, cable, DSL, and Wi-Fi."
After explaining each of those in more detail, Abby walked to the stations. "You're going to get a chance to try each of these to see the pros and cons. Each station has a different internet service providers or ISP. They offer varying levels of help, annoyance and in some cases, a lot of shiny CD's mailed to your house. Station one and four will be ones you will have to connect to, station two and three you'll already be connected to the internet. I'd like for you to work alone at the first station for my own sanity and with partners for the other three."
"Feel free to ask myself or Mac any questions." Abby walked back up to the front and pointed to a spot on her desk. "I'd like a written paragraph from you about what you liked and hated. Doesn't have to be long or spelled right, just have it on my desk by the end of class."
[Wait for OCD please. OCD up! I'll be playing the part of AOL today, which is why you're working alone on that station. Ping into the thread and then I'll guide you through connecting. I should be on all day give or take time for eating and stuff.]

Ah. Right. Certain things are fairly universal, and she knows the proper response to someone whipping out his...jpg.
...okay, she knows the one her father taught her, which is 'run like hell' and she also knows the one Hammersmith said to give if it happened in the market where she couldn't possibly be in danger.
xWeLLhuNg1983: Does that come in Medium and Large sizes as well?
