WHAT’S NEW

The Internet or Web, known as the World Wide Web (WWW), is a collection of
uncounted number of pages of information displayed on the Internet. It is a sharing tool of
information where rating continues to grow.

You can view information of issues, queries that you might have in your mind
and with the help of a “web browser”- a term referring to a window that allows you to view
online content (e.g., Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, and Google Chrome). In
some certain points, it will not be easy to get accurately what you are looking for due to
numerous authors, sites and web browsers. To deal with this, we use a web browser to access
a search engine which allows us to search for a particular topic, word, or phrase.

2
 WHAT IS IT

Use basic functions of a www- browser to locate information

The Internet is a network of communication that connects computers from all

around the world. With the use of search engines like Google or Bing to search for websites
about a particular topic, word, or phrase we were able to reach different websites.

Open and locate a Web Browser

A web browser is a program that displays information and images on web sites.
It reads the information on a web page and displays it on your computer screen. Three of the
most popular web browsers are called “Microsoft Internet Explorer”, “Mozilla Firefox”, and
“Google Chrome”. You will be able to use at least one of these browsers at your local places
or even in your own gadgets.

How to open/ launch browsers?

1. Bring the cursor of your mouse to the browser’s icon on the desktop and double-click on
it with the left mouse button (alternatively, left-click once, and then press the “Enter”
key).
2. On the Address/ Search bar, type the URL you wanted to browse example google.com,
youtube.com and etc.
3.From there, it will bring you to the background panel wherein you are going to type the
specific topic you wanted to look for.

Parts of the Browser:

• Navigation Bar - This bar is located at the top of your computer screen. Its functions
allow you to navigate the Web.
• Navigation Buttons - These buttons are used to go back and forth between
webpages.
• To go back, click on the left arrow
• To go forward, click on the right arrow

• Address/Search Bar - Use this bar to type in a Web Address or to perform a Web
Search. This is the part of the browser where you will enter the appropriate URL
of the site.

• Web Address - A web address is used to locate a particular webpage. It usually begins

3
 with “http://www” or “https://www.” The added “s” means that the website has security
measures to keep others from seeing the information you are accessing or sharing. A
web address is sometimes referred to as a “URL” (Uniform Resource Locator)
o Web Address Suffixes
▪ The different endings of web addresses may indicate the type of entity
operating the website.
▪ Common suffixes are:
.com -All types of entities: nonprofits, schools, businesses and private
individuals
.gov - government (only)
.edu - colleges and universities (almost exclusively)
.org - non-profit organizations (mostly)
.mil - military (only)

• Web Search - A web search is used to locate information. In the Address/Search

Bar, type in a few key words describing what you would like to find and press “Enter”
on the keyboard. A list of webpages will appear. Click on an entry to access a listed
webpage.
• Refresh Button- Click on this button to reload and update the information on a
webpage you are viewing.
• Stop Button- Click on this button to stop a webpage from opening.
• Tabs- These tabs (that look like file folder tabs) show when multiple webpages are
open. Click on the “X” on the right side of the tab to close the webpage.
• Home Page- This is the page that appears when the web browser is launched. Click
on the “Home” icon to go back to the Home Page.
• Favorites- Click on the “Star” icon then the “Favorites” tab to access the Favorites
feature. This feature allows you to bookmark websites to provide one-click access
later.
When you are on a website, create a bookmark by clicking on the “Star” icon,
then clicking on the “Add to favorites” button. A pop-up window will appear with a
suggested name for the bookmark. Click the “Add” button to save the bookmark.

• New Tab Button- When you want to have multiple web pages open at the same time,
click on the “New Tab” button to open a new page.
