Network Study Guide turn-in

You know the drill…

PC Study Guide turn-in

Turn it in by clicking on “No Comments.” (It says that because there are no comments yet, and there never will be because I don’t approve any. But I can see them, so…)

Where is says name put PC Study Guide firstname last name. Okay?

New terms to add to your Network Study Guide

Add these terms to the end of your study guide:

IEE 802.3

IEE 802.11b

IEE 802.11g

IEE 802.11n

Note. You might notice I didn’t include IEE 802.11a. For extra credit, add that one and explain why I didn’t include it.

Enjoy some free time

Be good to the sub. If you computer isn’t working, try to fix it, but don’t mess it up for the other classes. Ask Chris B. and Chris F. for help.

Be good to the sub…

…read in the Dummies book beginning at page 679 and don’t stop.

Remember it’s a short period, early release day.

Finish your individual OSI Model PowerPoint

You have a sub for the next two days. Therefore do the following:

Each of you have started an OSI Model presentation. Perfect it and finish, ready to present on Wed. You will all present.

See you Wednesday.

Sub Instructions, Feb. 18, 19, and 20

Hello. Have the students read the instructions below (they know how to go to this blog):

Click on the “Network Study Guide” in the Links area to the right, and download it. Then carefully research each entry and put in the correct information. Save it as “NetworkStudyGuide2 firstname lastname” in your My Documents.

This should take a full three days if you do it right. I expect to see EVERYONE finished when I return on Monday.

BTW, this is really important and helpful information. If you know all this stuff, you’re halfway to being a good network technician.

Thanks.

Class Instructions Feb. 3rd

Finish your OS presentation

or

Finish your OSI Model presentation.

Chris F. and Chris B., take everything under the tables (computers and monitors) and stack it neatly against the wall in the hall between our door and the corner of the hall where it turns toward the bathrooms. Please: neatly and safely, so nothing can fall over on anybody. Leave the Epson printer in the room on a back table. Thanks.

Sub Instructions – The OSI Model

Wednesday: Students will study the OSI Reference Model.

Students will go to these websites:

OSI Reference Model illustrated

Webopedia – OSI Model

Wikipedia – OSI Model

They must QUIETLY read each one. Then, they will create a PowerPoint presentation with:

1. Slides on the history and purpose of the OSI Model.
2. A slide showing a graphic (picture) of the OSI Model.
3. Seven slides that explain EACH LAYER.
4. A Citations page showing ALL THE WEB PAGES VISITED IN MAKING THIS PRESENTATION.

Students must work hard to finish this by Friday when I will be there to watch them finish.

Thanks.

PS. If students want to quietly finish up their LAB computers with XP installation and AVG virus installation, that’s good. Let Chris Bacon and Chris Farquhar lead this effort. They might need to work with students to have ethernet cables and good KVM switches. Then, students need to concentrate on the OSI project.

Work for January 6th — with a substitute in charge

Sorry I’m missing the first day of school. Be nice to the sub and do the following while I’m gone:

Read all of Chapters 1 and 2 from p. 499-533 in the A+ Certification for Dummies book. These are the first two chapters about operating systems.

When I get back, we’ll begin to use our second computers and install Windows on them.

Thanks, and I’ll see you soon. –Mr. Ross
