Course Requirements:
The intention of this course is to familiarize the student with Windows 2003 Server Administration which will be applied via coursework, labs, and exams. The course material builds on itself. Missing or not understanding some of the material may have an effect on what is learned later in the semester. Please notify the instructor if you are having difficulty understanding the material.

 

Academic honesty:
Credit for this course is based upon individual achievement and demonstrated skills.  You will be required to demonstrate your ability to use basic software features covered in the assignments and quizzes; therefore, doing your OWN work on assignments and quizzes is crucial.  All work submitted should be the product of your own personal efforts unless the instructor specifically authorizes a group assignment or project.  Discussion of assignments and quizzes is encouraged, but submitting someone else’s work as your own is not permitted.  Gaining answers on projects or exams through any dishonest method or providing such assistance to others is cheating and disciplinary action may be taken as stated in the student handbook.

 

Copyright Notice:
The course website may contain copyrighted materials that are used in compliance with U.S. Copyright Law. Under that law, materials may not be saved to your computer, revised, copied, or distributed without permission. They are to be used in support of instructional activity as part of this course only and shall be limited to the duration of the course, unless otherwise specified by the instructor or owner of the material. You may only download or print materials at the direction of your instructor, who knows which materials are copyrighted and which are not.

 

Classroom etiquette:

Follow classroom lab rules and network usage policies.

Be considerate of your classmates and your instructor

Minimize classroom disturbances

Do not print during lectures.  Turn off cell phones/pagers, or set to vibrate mode. If you must enter class late or leave early, do so as quietly as possible. If you are late, wait until the end of class to check with the instructor about attendance. Work quietly on assignments

Do not attempt to get assistance on projects from other students or to gain answers for quiz questions dishonestly. Silence during exam and project class periods is expected.
