(Each student must have an E-mail address to communicate in the course. Tutorial 3 of the text covers email programs from Outlook Express to Hotmail. Free Emails may be obtained from HCC Brandon’s Webmaster Certification Program. Those that do not have emails on the first day will be issued a free email after orientation. Those that have never used email will be given a lesson on email after orientation of the e-Learning class. You may also send email to jtaylor@hccbrandon.net with your requested user name and password. Students will be issued an account : username@hccbrandon.net. Students access: http://webmail.hccbrandon.net/ to use this email. This web site has form mail similar to Yahoo and Hotmail except it contains no ads and is much faster.
Hotmail
[http://www.hotmail.com], MailExcite [www.mailexcite.com], Yahoo
[www.mail.yahoo.com, Bigfoot
[www,bigfoot.com], or all other search engines and many web sites such as
Disney.com. Students with a private ISP without form mail access (remote site
access) must also get a free email and configure the form mail to secure emails
from the private ISP. However, Earthlink, Road Runner, and AOL has remote form
mail which may be accessed from
HCC’s classrooms or other remote sites.
After the term begins, the
student will be given access to a fourth e-mail from HCC Web
CT.
E-Mail assignments to:
John
Taylor’s students must send three
copies of all emails:
jtaylorcgs1100@yahoo.com and jtaylor@masterlinx.net and jtaylor@hccfl.edu
Subjects of emails must
describe briefly the assignments being submitted and begin with: 00E:.by the e-learning students. For example: 00E: first email would be
the subject of the first email for the distance learning
students.
Getting Started (Your ISP
and Email):
Sometimes the hardest part of the course for some of the students is to gain access to the Internet at home. Students must have access to the Internet to complete the course. Free access is available at the public libraries and all HCC computer labs. However, e-Learning’s purpose is to allow the student to complete his/her work from a distance, which the majority of the time is from the student’s home. Most of the class members already have an Internet Service Provider (ISP) at their home.
If you do not have access to the Internet, it is suggested that you do not contract for an ISP that requires longer than a one year agreement. Purchasing an ISP contract is like buying a cell phone contract. Be careful. There are great deals out there. For example: 695online.com is a new ISP out of Daytona Beach that offers access at $6.95 per month with local dialup. Many people are enticed by the free trial AOL deal. AOL is good for the beginners but over priced at $23+ per month. Your instructor’s ISP has a range of services available from their very cheap $5 per month dialup access with no email to their most expensive family plan at $18 per month which allows six logon accounts (family and friends) with two simultaneous users, 12 email accounts, and 25 meg of web space. Your instructor has one of his six dialups reserved for student emergency use at no charge on a short term basis.
When you are shopping for an ISP, you need to find information such as:
Directions to set up your modem through My Computer and Dial-Up Networking can be access through HELP. You need several things to setup the ISP: a local dial-up phone number, your log-on user name, your log-on user pass word, your incoming email server address and your outgoing email server address.
After being on the Internet, students may want to have a faster connection. These services start at $34.95 and up. Dialup access via phone is limited to 53 kbs at the very best connection. Cable and DSL are at least twice as fast and is described in Tutorial 1. This is the reason the instructor recommends no long term contracts so that faster options are available at a later time.
HCC does not allow dialup access to the Internet. Also HCC does not assign student SMTP regular E-Mail accounts like USF.
Therefore, each campus student should obtain an Internet email access either through hccbrandon.net, Hotmail, MailExcite, or Yahoo or (all are free) or a private provider (up to $23/month). By the second week of the course the student must have an ISP and an email address.
Students receive the 50 points by emailing the instructor at jtaylorcgs1100@yahoo.com and jtaylor10@hccbrandon.net with cc’s to jtaylor@hccfl.edu and jtaylor@masterlinx.net with a short message as to whether this is the student's first email or a description of the student's past email experience. Subject of the first email is: 00e: first email.
By the end of the second week, the instructor will send a group email to all the students in the class. For 75 additional points the student will add all the class members and the instructor to their address book, setup a group mail in the address book, and send a group email to everyone in the class and Taylor’s four email addresses. During the course the students will send biweekly group emails to all class members and the instructor for 25 points each.

Hardware Activities:
The Internet: Getting Started with Email
The hardest part of the using the Internet for some of the students is to gain access to the Internet at home. Others already are on the Internet with an E-Mail address. HCC’s access to the Internet does not allow for student regular (smtp) E-Mail on HCC’s server. Therefore, each student should obtain an Internet access either through using the WEBCT Free Email or Hotmail, MailExcite, Yahoo or JUNO (all are free) or a private provider (up to $20/month). By the second week of the course the student will have an address. Submitting this address is worth xx points of the student’s final grade. Students who have home computers have an advantage, while others will have to utilize many hours of extra time on campus using the OPEN computer Students receive the xx points by emailing the instructor at his WEBCT email box or jtaylor@hccfl.edu or jtaylor@masterlinx.net or jtaylorcgs1100@yahoo.com with a short message as to whether this is the student's first email or a description of the student's past computer experience and software the student uses plus the type and speed of a personal pc at home.
Internet Research Assignments:
During the course the student will
conduct several major searches on the Internet on topics of the
student’s choice and/or as assigned by the instructor. These are not yet
listed on the WEBCT Course descriptions and assignments. For example, the first
search is one word/one engine: what is a Neurophone and who is Patrick Flannigan. The student should
use one Search engine using Netscape Communicator or Internet Explorer.
Each major search will be worth 50 points toward the final grade and must be submitted with up to a one page summary (minimum of three paragraphs). The first paragraph should answer the question, the second paragraph should describe the process used including one page of the hit lists of articles found through the search engine and also hard copy of the most important article(s) found. The last paragraph should describe what the student learned in this exercise.
Vector
and Raster Graphics:
Student will collect graphics from the web, scan a photo, take an electronic photo, and use a graphic package to draw several images. Paint Shop Pro 7 is available for a 30 day download and is also installed in the BTech 203 lab as well as Adobe PhotoShop 7. Microsoft also has a paint program which saves images in .bmp format, which are very large files. Formats for the photos or graphics must be in the .jpg or .gif formats for publication on the web. You have to use a graphic program to convert the file format.
Word Processing-Word XP:
Students will use Microsoft Office's Word XP to prepare several word processing documents including a Term Paper.
Academic Software Purchases:
Microsoft Office XP (Word, Excel, Access, Power Point, Publisher)
multimedia: HyperStudio or Click2Learn ToolBook II Assistant
web page development tool: Front Page XP, Dreamweaver MX, or HomeSite
graphics (Paint Shop Pro or PhotoShop)
As students of HCC you may purchase software,
fully licensed, called Academic Versions for your home use at reduced prices,
which are generally lower then local stores and online pricing deals. For
example, HomeSite cost $99 when purchased from the Vendor: Macromedia. There are
often $25 or $30 rebate coupons for Office Depot, Comp USA, etc. However, you
can order from an Academic Vendor such as: Software One at 1-800-444-9890. Our HCC rep is Brian Reagle. I must tell him or verify to
him you are a student or co-employee of HCC. The price is $68 plus shipping.
Other good academic deals: Office XP Profession-full version $189 (not
upgrade)($149 Special Student-no database Access), Adobe PhotoShop 6.0 $264, and
Word Perfect Office Profession (including Paradox) $93. Our Bookstore also sells
Academic versions such as Dreamweaver 4.0 $99 (which includes Homesite)—Brian’s
price $94 but you have to pay shipping..
TERM PAPER:
After reading chapter 12, the student will submit a term paper researching the topic on computer security for both your machine explaining: virsus, worms, Trojan horse, spyware, and how community colleges are preparing to train students in Cyber Security, using mainly the Internet to collect the information for the paper.
At HCC and in the State of Florida two new courses have been added: CIS 1354 Introduction to Network Security and CIS 2355 Advanced Network Security. Specifically use the above course prefix and number to see what results you obtain using a search engine. Add a section to the term paper which describes what courses and programs are being added in community college curricula to teach cyber security of servers and how technicians obtain certification in Cyber Security. Visit Seminole Community and Valencia Community College web sites to add the additional courses they have introduced into the state computer science curriculum. Check Pasco-Hernando, Mantee, St Pete, Polk, and HCC to see if any of these courses are available in the bay area.
The paper will be at least three pages, double spaced. Web sites must be included in a reference bibliography section written in APA style or the style displayed by the instructor. Reference the following for the style. Go to: http://www.apastyle.org/elecref.html and select electronic sources or: http://www.apastyle.org/elecsource.html . Please note there are at least five different kind of Internet resources explained on this web site.
What cyber security certificates may be earned at these colleges and what certification may be obtained from COMPTIA. Which national organizations focus on cyber security. What is the NSF scholarship for service program. Read the press release:
http://www.nsf.gov/od/lpa/news/02/pr0266.htm
The first major workshop that focused on cyber security for community colleges may be found at:
Also the agenda: http://www.aacc.nche.edu/Content/NavigationMenu/ResourceCenter/Projects_Partnerships/OtherInitiatives/Cybersecurity/Workshop_Agenda.htm
Two of the participants at the workshop published a paper on cyber security courses in community college. Before doing search 5, please read and see if one year later their research should have been updated with newer information. As you find cyber programs at other community colleges beside the ones mentioned in the paper, you may want to use this information to contact the authors to satisfy the last objective of Search 4: http://216.239.37.100/search?q=cache:1V7YMznbip4C:www.aacc.nche.edu/Content/NavigationMenu/ResourceCenter/Projects_Partnerships/OtherInitiatives/Cybersecurity/Cybersec_Ed_in_CCs.pdf+%22Cybersecurity+Education+in+Community+Colleges+Across+America%22&hl=en&ie=UTF-8
Thirty-six universities have been designated as Centers of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance under the program. NSA granted the designations following a rigorous review of university applications against published criteria based on training standards established by the National Security Telecommunications and Information Systems Security Committee (NSTISSC).The list may be found at: http://www.nsa.gov/isso/programs/nietp/newspg1.htm#Universities On the list is Florida State University (http://www.cs.fsu.edu/infosec/). Recently they were one of 19 awarded a grant for the scholarship for service. This will be the first program in the state. Can you find FSU's abstract at the NSF. If so, include it as a direct quote for your paper.
Another question which you might address is:
What is the difference between and hacker and a cracker. The hackers Hall of Fame may be found at: http://tlc.discovery.com/convergence/hackers/bio/bio.html One of the purpose of this paper is to
learn how to site Internet reference in papers written for other courses. This
paper must be submitted in either: hard copy or with the electronic file in
Word format . The paper may be submited as an attachment to an email. The
student will earn 200 points for this
task.
Students will use Microsoft Office's Excel XP (or Word Perfect's Quatro Pro, or Microsoft Works 4.5) to prepare several spreadsheet documents as described during the course
Class
Presentation-Power Point XP:
Students will use Microsoft’s
PowerPoint XP to make a class
presentation on a subject to be announced.
Data

On-Line- Chapter Quiz of the Week:
Until the on-line tests are posted, the student will complete the online Practice test and the Computer Genus Game for each chapter –one chapter per week
Muddy Water Issues:
Each day, students may use the e-mail to alert the instructor to the muddy water issue. What was confusing? What do you not understand? What problems overwhelm you? If you are absolutely on target, no problem then you will submit an email with an OK statement at least once every three weeks and a comment on which topic the instructor could have presented in a better fashion. There is also a place on the weekly Chapter quizzes developped by John Taylor for students to enter Muddy Water Issues. If left blank, then you have no problems.
On Line Activities:
(1) Free Time:
Students takes a lot of time to learn
about computing.
Each student should identify at least 8 hours or more per week of free
time that he/she will commit towards the completion of this course. The following are
suggested strategies for scheduling your study times. Make an hour by
hour, seven day matrix 8 columns (hour and each day of the week) by 24 lines
(representing each hour). Upon request the instructor will provide the student
with a sample hard copy blank form or a sample will be posted on the Web
Site.
Starting with wake-up and end with sleeping:
1. Schedule fixed blocks of time first. These include work,
class time, eating, and sleeping.
2. Include time for travel and errands
3. Schedule time for fun.
4. Set realistic goals.
5. Allow flexibility in your schedule.
6. Study at least two hours for every hour in class.
7. Avoid scheduling marathon study sessions.
8. Set clear starting and stopping times.
9. Plan for the Unplanned!
A simple time planner is available at the following Student Success Site:
http://college.hmco.com/collegesurvival/ellis/master_student/9e/students/ch02.html#ch02
Students will print out a hard copy of the free time chart for the portfolio.
(2) Discovery Wheel:
The Discovery Wheel
is a giant first step to tell the truth about yourself. It is not a test, it is a
self-assessment.
The student should keep the hard copy of the instrument by printing each
page completed, and submit a hard copy of the final wheel product for 30 points
(Print one for yourself). Students will
complete their discovery wheels using the Internet at the following URL:
http://college.hmco.com/collegesurvival/ellis/master_student/9e/students/ch01.html#ch01
Learning Styles Inventories:
(3) OnLine MBTI:
The instructor has an online
activity which is an abbreviated version of the Myers Briggs Inventory:
http://www.hccbrandon.net/learnstyle/bryanpsy.html
(4) OnLine Beta LSI:
The instructor has a Beta version
of an online Learning style on the LSI page:
http://www.hccfl.edu/faculty/john_taylor/learnstyle/menu.html
Master Student Exercises :
The instructor understands that the
average attention span for a student listening to a lecture is less than 20
minutes.
Each class is 180 minutes. Generally, the instructor will attempt to
cover the lecture topic is short sound bites 15-20 minutes in length.
Also the instructor will incorporate exercises from the Becoming a Master Student program. The $30 text sold at the PC bookstore EME 2040 or Ybor (REA 1605 or SLS 1501) or bought online at Amazon.com and is one of the best investments a college student may make. The Discovery Wheel and Learning Styles Inventory are both assessments from the Master Student text.
Home Page:
Each student is expected by the end of the course to author a three page web site to answer the question who is the student? The home page will link to:
(1) The photo page will display Images collected including scanned photos ,
(2) The Favorites/Interests page will include 5 hyperlinks of favorite Internet sites and links to E-Mail should be included.
(3) The student will prepare a resume in Word and save it as a web page.
The student may post the final product at
HCC’s Student server, John
Taylor’s or Bob Harrell's, or the student's private ISP. The student may
use a WYSIWYG editor such as Front Page XP to develop the Web Site, otherwise the student should download from the net
the HomeSite
text editor or Dreamweaver to create this project on their personal
computer. Front Page Express
is available on the Internet Explorer 5.0 browser as a free WYSIWYG editor. Composer is the
WYSIWYG editor available on Netscape's Communicator 4.7. Students may also
incorporate this project into the word processing, presentation, or Microsoft
Publisher’s software. HomeSite
allows you a 30 day free use of the 4.5 version at: http://www.allaire.com . The student will submit
either the URL where the page is published or submit a disk in the grading
portfolio for evaluation.
File Formats:
On-Line Tutorial Quizzes and Exams:
After the first week, students will complete on-line quizzes and exams. The quizzes are open book/notes, but must be completed individually without assistance from peers at home. These quizzes (up to 14 total) will be the exercises that should be completed prior to attempting weekly online tests via WebCT. 15-60 points of the total grade (one point for each correct answer) will be earned for the completion of these weekly quizzes. These quizzes are on the quiz menu page: http://www.hcc.cc.fl.us/faculty/john_taylor/cgs1100/00testmenu.html
After completion of the quiz, the student will attempt a timed on-line exam through WebCT. The WebCT exams will be 25 randomly selected questions worth 2 points each. The student will have only 30 minutes to complete the test. The student will be allowed two retests to improve the grade, except the last retest will be the score which counts toward the final grade.
The
instructor will prepare the chapter quizzes from the required textbook:
Discovering Computers 2003: Concepts for a Digital World. The chapter quizzes will
be worth up to 55 points each, 50 points short answer and an additional 5 points
for an essay question when on the quiz.. (Not every quiz has an essay question)
The on-line chapter quizzes allow the student to check the test before
submitting it..
CGS 1100 students should access Test Zero from their home
to test their ISP:
1. Enter your name and email address,
2. Enter the answer to #1 as
choice a,
3.
Scroll down to the "All Done Check the Test" button and click to see if your
ISP's browser pops up the window and grades the test with a score of 1 out of
50.
4. Finally
click the submit button and see if the test submits.
The student must check the quiz at least once before submitting it. After checking it, the student has an option to change the answer to the correct answer before submitting it. From time to time, especially during Beta Testing a new quiz, a wrong answer will be programmed in the test checker. If the student strongly disagrees with the computer’s answer, the student should challenge the answer by describing why the computer’s answer is wrong in the “I discovered that…” section of the test.
When you have completed the quiz, press the ALL DONE-CHECK TEST button at the bottom of the test to check the test! Then you may go back and change the incorrect answers before you SUBMIT the test. You may check the answers as many times as you need until you achieve a perfect grade. Sometimes the pop-up box does not appear when you click on the button after checking the test the first time. If this happens, minimize the test and the answer box will be behind the browser. Close the box and maximize the test to continue the test. After answer all the questions successfully, submit the quiz.
Also, sometimes the quiz checker doesn’t work or indicates a JavaScript error. If the test will not grade, print out a hard copy, submit the test using the alternate submit button.After recieving your test back from the instructor, Grade your short answers from the email and submit the graded quiz to the instructor via a separate email. The instructor charges at least 15 points for quizzes not checked, making the maximum score 35 out of 50. Also the instructor charges 15 points for a student who fails to place their name on the test or another 15 points if they fail to place their correct email address at the top of the test.
If you have problems submitting the quiz, go back to the "All Done Check Test" button and bring back the popup screen. That screen has a menubar. You may use the menu to printout the results for your files. You may use the edit menu to copy the answer popup to clipboard, then paste the contents into an email. Make certain you put 00e: Chapter XX Quiz-Alternate Submission as the subject of the email.

Computer Genius Game:
The student will complete before each WebCT exam, a 30 points activity by playing “Who wants to be a Computer Genius?” found at:
http://www.scsite.com/dc2003/index.cfm?fuseaction=main&chap=1&module=learn
Attempt Chapter 1, which is the Internet Chapter. You have to the access Chapter 1. When you need to do Chapter 2, click on Chapter 2 at the top of the page, then click on "Learn It Online" from the top menu. Then select the Computer Genius under option #3.
Put you full name in the blank before you begin. Play the game. You have three
lifelines. If you complete the game successfully and become an “Computer (Internet) Genius”, print the page as
proof and note how many lifelines you used. You will receive 100% of the points
for completing the game successfully regardless of the lifelines used. You have
only 45/60 seconds to answer each question, unless you use the third lifeline,
which is consulting (Not a Friend) a particular section of the book (Discovering
Computers 2003), which stops the clock. Failing to answer a question in 45
seconds or answering a question incorrectly burns a lifeline.
