Here it is: https://studio.code.org/s/netsim/stage/1/puzzle/2

I think the link is correct. It is showing the instructions for the different versions of the internet simulator.

Thank you for checking. I went through the sequence again several times, finally saw what I’d missed and am now able to do a test connect with different login on another machine.
fwiw, in checking came across the following: on https://studio.code.org/s/netsim/stage/1/puzzle/1 there’s a link for “Lesson plans”, which gives a page not found error. No issue for me since there are other paths to that information.

Great tool, plan to use it.

@sbishov glad you got that sorted out. If you are still playing with the tool note you can even just open two tabs with the same account on the same computer and you’ll appear as two users of the Internet Simulator. This is a really fun and easy way to test out how it works.

Thanks for pointing out those broken links, we’ve fixed them on the back end and they should be updated online in the next couple days.

Cheers!

Hi All,

I thought I would share this “win” from the day. At the end of the lesson I showed the video about the internet. At the end of the video, one of my senior boys said “that’s really cool, I’m glad we saw that”. Happily, I responded, “yeah! It’s kinda amazing that EVERYONE uses the internet and not very many people know how it works!”

He then said “Everyone should be required to see that”

I started to think he was just trying to butter me up or something - I called him on it, but he assured me, that no, he authentically felt like this content should be taught to everyone. (I also feel like I’m getting cynical, now…)

BUT I think it is neat that even STUDENTS think CS is for ALL!

Keep on fighting the good fight everyone! <3
