Washington Foundations of Computer Science

Students will be able to:

• Explain how computers communicate using routers
• Explain what considerations are made when choosing a route
• Discuss how routers are fault-tolerant because of redundancy

Enduring Understandings

This lesson builds toward the following Enduring Understandings (EUs) and Learning Objectives (LOs). Students should understand that?

• EU 4.2 Algorithms can solve many, but not all, computational problems. (LOs 4.2.1, 4.2.2)
• EU 6.2 Characteristics of the Internet influence the systems built on it. (LOs 6.2.1, 6.2.2)
