Assignments
Students will read chapters in required class textbook.
Students will write about troubleshooting approaches they found most useful and share those findings with the other students in the class.
All of the courses in Web Technologies require students to learn to think critically. Using computers effectively requires that students can express their instructions in a form that the computer program can understand and execute. First students must understand what they want to accomplish. Second, students must identify what logical steps are required to instruct the computer to do the work. Finally, students must know how to submit the instructions in the correct format to the computer for completion. Accomplishing this work requires students apply critical thinking skills.
Outside assignments will include completion of lab work, assigned readings from the text books, and homework problems.
