ASSIGNMENTS

Self-Assessment Exercises You
will benefit greatly if you use the self-assessment
exercises to authentically assess your understanding of the
material. Even thought the answers are provided, you
should answer the questions, and return to
the chapter to review any that you missed. You are to
word process both the complete question and full answer for all
of the Self-assessments. You will submit the
full question and answer (no letter "B" for example) and include the
page number in the chapter where you found the answer.
This will provide another
method of input and recall and will aid understanding
and retention. I consider the self-assessments to be
guided review rather than testing. Work submitted with
errors, will not be graded. You
would do well to keep a printed copy for each chapter to
use for review during the course.
|
| 2. |
Exercises You
will have a great deal to read about a broad range of web related
topics. You will only be required to do a limited number of
Hands-on Exercises. These will include the sections on html, java
(introductory only) Dreamweaver, CSS, and a few others. You
will find the submission links (used to submit your work) in the
Assignments page of the Distance Learning site.
I
will be offering an advanced class which will use this book (I think
it is fantastic) again at which time we will do the programming and
scripting in depth. |
| 3. |
Chapter Summary We
will read and review the Summary sections throughout the course. These
will aid in learning and retention of the zillion terms and acronyms
you need to know to pass the Certification Exam. |
| 4. |
CIW Foundations Certification Exam The actual
certification exam will act as your final exam. The
certification exam can be taken at any approved testing
center. Most Ivy Tech campuses offer this testing. You
can contact Brenda Strope, bstrope@ivytech.edu our regional testing coordinator to obtain your voucher
number. You paid for the test as a part of your
tuition, you need the voucher number to schedule the
testing.
