| Course Description |
|
An introduction to the Internet and the World Wide Web. Topics to be covered include history of the Internet and structure of the World Wide Web. Includes use of Web browsers, search engines, simple e-mail, uploading and downloading, tools to develop home pages, creating a simple webpage using HTML (and an authoring tool), and how to get connected. Using the Internet AND the World Wide Web is both a fundamental job skill and an incredibly fun activity. It is used for communications, marketing, information, business and commerce, games and entertainment and much more. What do you already do with the Internet and WWW? Probably more than you think... CABT/CIS160 is designed for beginners in the use of the Internet and WWW. Some familiarity with the computer is desireable, but not necessary. |
| Recommended Preparation |
| CIS 100, Introduction to the Cabrillo Computer Technology Center. This course (CABT/CIS160) assumes you have used a computer at least a little bit. If you have no computer experience, plan on spending more time in the early weeks and be prepared for lots of jargon and vocabulary. Don't worry about it...the whole course is filled with jargon and vocabulary anyway and we'll make it pleasant and interesting to learn. |
| Work Load and related requirements |
| You are asked to attend class and complete the worksheet assignments as homework. The course actively uses the Internet both in and out of class. Plan on spending at least 2 hours a week working on the computer, reading and doing homework in addition to attending class. You can will have access to a computer in the classroom (sometimes shared) and individually in the Cabrillo Computer Technology Center (CTC). Additionally, any computer at work or home with Internet access will allow you to do the class work and view the class website. |
