Networks Unplugged

Workshop
Workshop Categories: Communication & the Internet
Key Stages: KS2 KS3

About

This workshop is based on the 'Networks Unplugged' material written by Mark Dorling and published with Computing At School (CAS). Networks Unplugged has been developed with the CS Unplugged pedagogy in mind; and therefore incorporates their activities. 

Pupils will begin the day by participating in discussions to establish current knowledge surrounding networks and then follow on with unplugged activities to highlight the difference between the World Wide Web and the Internet.

If you have any questions about the workshop, please get in touch with the team: dsh@ukie.org.uk
