network lesson 3

Open Ended

Compare and contrast the main differences between a LAN and a WAN, focusing on their geographical coverage and typical use cases.

Multiple Select

Which of the following are required or commonly used for a Wide Area Network (WAN)?

• Router

• Bluetooth

• Leased lines

• Satellite connections

Multiple Choice

Which of the following is a type of network that connects devices within a small geographic area, such as a single building?

• Wide Area Network (WAN)

• Local Area Network (LAN)

• Personal Area Network (PAN)

• Metropolitan Area Network (MAN)

Open Ended

Why do you think understanding different types of networks is important for careers such as Network Administrator or Computer Science Teacher?

Multiple Choice

Which type of network typically spans the immediate area around a person or device, such as the range of Bluetooth?

• Personal Area Network (PAN)

• Local Area Network (LAN)

• Wide Area Network (WAN)

• Metropolitan Area Network (MAN)

Open Ended

Explain how a Personal Area Network (PAN) is commonly used in everyday life. Provide at least two examples.

Multiple Choice

Which of the following statements best describes a Local Area Network (LAN)?

• A network that spans a small geographical area such as less than a mile or a single site

• A network that spans the immediate area around a person or device

• A network that spans a large geographical area such as more than a mile or multiple sites

• A network that connects devices using satellite connections

Multiple Choice

Which type of network is illustrated by the connection between Leicester and London in the diagram?

• Personal Area Network

• Local Area Network

• Wide Area Network

• Metropolitan Area Network

Open Ended

Compare the ownership of hardware in Personal Area Networks (PANs), Local Area Networks (LANs), and Wide Area Networks (WANs).

Multiple Choice

Which two topologies are shown in the 'Network topologies' slide?

• Ring and Mesh

• Bus and Star

• Star and Mesh

• Bus and Ring

Multiple Select

Which of the following statements are true about network topologies?

• A network topology describes the physical layout of a network.

• A network topology describes how nodes in a LAN are interconnected.

• There is only one type of network topology.

• Bus and Star are examples of network topologies.

Open Ended

Why is it necessary to place terminators at each end of the central backbone cable in a bus topology?

Multiple Choice

What is the main function of the terminators in a bus topology?

• To connect devices to the network

• To prevent signal reflection and data loss

• To increase network speed

• To act as a backup server

Multiple Choice

Which of the following is a key disadvantage of the bus topology as shown in the diagram and described in the advantages and disadvantages?

• If the backbone cable fails, the whole network will fail

• It requires a lot of cabling

• It is difficult to add new devices

• Data is always secure

Open Ended

Compare how data is transmitted in a bus topology versus a star topology.

Multiple Select

Which of the following statements about star topology are correct?

• If a cable is broken, only the device connected by that cable is affected.

• All devices communicate along a single backbone.

• A lot of cabling is required which can become expensive.

• If the switch fails the whole network fails.

Open Ended

Explain one advantage and one disadvantage of using a star topology based on the information provided.

Open Ended

Describe the difference between a local area network (LAN) and a wide area network (WAN).

Multiple Select

Which of the following careers can studying this unit help you pursue?

• Network Administrator

• Network Architect

• Computer Science Teacher

• Graphic Designer

Multiple Select

Which of the following are learning outcomes for this part of the lesson?

• Be able to define the term network protocol.

• Be able to explain the purpose and use of TCP/IP.

• Be able to describe what a MAC address is.

• Be able to program a network router.

Open Ended

Explain the purpose of a network protocol and give an example of how it is used in real-world communication between devices.

Multiple Choice

Which of the following is a reason why network protocols are important?

• They allow devices from different manufacturers to communicate across a network.

• They increase the speed of the internet.

• They reduce the cost of hardware.

• They eliminate the need for security measures.

Open Ended

What is one question you still have about network types or topologies after this lesson?

Multiple Choice

Which of the following is NOT a learning outcome for this part of the Networks unit?

• Be able to describe a personal area network.

• Be able to describe a local area network.

• Be able to explain the mesh network topology.

• Be able to explain the bus network topology.
