How the Internet Works in 12 Levels
By Micah's Learning Resources
Students think the internet is in the air. It is mostly glass cable lying on the floor of the Atlantic. Twelve levels take a class from that everyday illusion down to the machinery underneath, one idea at a time. Each level opens with the plain-language concept, then a short Under the Hood section with the technical detail a curious student will ask for next. What's Included: - One interactive file covering all 12 levels, in a single download - A sidebar that lets students jump to any level or work straight through - A plain-language concept section and a technical Under the Hood section on every level - 6 built-in diagrams and 3 check-your-understanding questions - Self-paced navigation with previous and next controls - Nothing to install, no account, and no internet required after download The 12 Levels: - Level 1: The Magic Cloud - Level 2: Under the Ocean - Level 3: The Address (IP) - Level 4: The Phonebook (DNS) - Level 5: Packets - Level 6: The Handshake (TCP) - Level 7: The Language (HTTP) - Level 8: Routing (The Map) - Level 9: Client and Server - Level 10: Encryption (TLS) - Level 11: The Edge (CDN) - Level 12: Politics and Power How It Works: Download one file and open it in any browser. Students pick a level from the sidebar or work through in order, reading the concept first and then the technical section underneath it. It runs the same on a Chromebook, a laptop or a tablet, and it can be shared through any learning management system. How to Use It: - Project one
