The Browser Cache - Updated November 2021
The browser uses a memory cache in order to display previously viewed pages from a local file instead of sending a new request over the web.
However, this causes a problem for programmers who need to see the changes made to a web page even if the filename is the same.
Using animation, this module demonstrates how a cache works. It shows the learner why they need to empty the cache in order to display the changes they made to their code.
On completion of this module the learner will be able to:
- Describe how a cache works.
- Explain why a cache is useful under normal viewing circumstances.
- Explain why programmers need to circumvent the cache.
- Demonstrate how to clear the cache in different browsers.
- Demonstrate how to install a browser extension that will clear the cache.
This module includes five formats:
1) SCORM version that can be uploaded to your LMS such as Canvas and Moodle
2) HTML version that can be uploaded to your website or LMS.
3) Microsoft Word
4) PDF
5) Video with narration and closed-captioning - Hosted on EduVision, an educational-safe video platform without tracking or ads.
8 quiz questions with answer key included (GIFT format)
Here is a video showing how to publish your HTML and SCORM modules to Canvas and Moodle. https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Adding-Articulate-Storyline-Tutorials-into-your-Course-Distance-Learning-3862967
