A Reason to Have Students Conduct Traceroutes Even if You’re Not a Computer Science Teacher

Back in November I.
released a video about using the ping command on a Windows computer system. The reason for that was to reveal an easy method to examine if a website is down or if there is an issue on your end..

Utilizing the ping command in the command prompt window on your computer may appear like something only computer system science teachers and trainees should do, but the reality is that any teacher or student can benefit from understanding how to do it. Running a traceroute might seem like something just a computer system science teacher or student should know how to do, however its actually something that anyone can benefit from understanding how to do..
A traceroute reveals you the hops or connection points in between your computer system and the destination (often a website). Run a couple of traceroutes with your trainees and see if theyre amazed by what they see.
