Navigating the pages associated with CIT11:
I strongly suggest that you take a little while and navigate my web site so that you
familiarize yourself with what is available and where it is located. There are notes,
PowerPoint presentations and sample coding examples that will benefit you as you learn the
material.
On the home page for the course:
The home page for the course gives you access to all of the site pages that
apply to the course that you are taking. The list on the left presents access to this information
by category.
- The first category is called About This Course.
- The page that you are currently reading was stored under this category as Read Me First.
- There is also an Introduction to CIT11 - methods, expectations etc that should be read by all students
- Finally there is the course syllabus for CIT11
- The second category is called Site ResourcesUse these resources to find information
that applies to the topic you are currently covering or topics previously covered. The
weekly schedule will tell you the current topics. Use of these resources should be
primarily driven by the assignments in the Weekly Schedule
- Notes and handouts for CIT11 points to the notes that will provide some
information about topics. The sample code will give you examples of some of the things
we are covering. For example, it includes HTML sample code.
- Presentations for CIT11 points to PowerPoint presentations that will provide additional
resources to accompany the notes and handouts and the sample code. It is a very valuable
resource and students should make a point of always looking at the assigned presentations.
- A Bulletin Board where students can communicate, pose questions, discuss problems they
are encountering, ask for help. I moderate the bulletin board but only occasionally, so do
not expect to get answers from me often. If you want to ask me a question, use the email
account I will give you in class.
- The third category is called Weekly Schedule. In this category you have the
Weekly Schedule for CIT11 including assignments. Several times a week, you should check
this weekly schedule to determine what you are being asked to do. You should read the
notes, look at the presentations and check the exampless that I suggest under the current
week. You should also do the weekly assignment.
- The fourth category Links. In this category, I provide some links to areas on
the Web where you can find information for your log book. I also provide tutorials to help
you with topics that we are covering.
The left side of the home page defaults to the weekly schedule - again, this is your main
source of information about what to do and what to pass in!
