IS 6100 Spring 2008 syllabus and schedule are available

by billso on Thursday, 17 January 2008

I’ve posted a PDF file with the syl­labus and sched­ule for my online IS 6100-AO course. Just click the pre­ced­ing link and look for the PDF file icon.

The course starts on Tues­day, 22 Jan­u­ary 2008.

I’ll post a link to the Paper 1 assign­ment by then on the course web page. That assign­ment is a brief intro­duc­tion paper that requires no text­book reading.

In the mean­time, please check the syl­labus. There are a cou­ple of chap­ters to read before the end of the month. I’ll start post­ing some addi­tional links and arti­cles next week, too.

I do require stu­dents to sign up for TurnItIn.com. it’s a free ser­vice for HPU stu­dents. I use that sys­tem to receive and return assign­ments, as well as keep the grade­book. The ser­vice works with Inter­net Explorer, Safari and Fire­fox browsers.

Stu­dents should send me an email indi­cat­ing what email address they want to use as their log-in ID for TurnItIn.com. I rec­om­mend using a per­sonal e-mail address that gets checked every day. Mobile email and web­mail addresses are fine. Some stu­dents use their Pipeline accounts, and that’s OK, too.

Stu­dents who already have a TurnItIn.com account should email me their address, so I can add them to the TurnItIn.com section.

23 Jan­u­ary 2008: I updated the syl­labus – the wrong text­book was listed on page 11. We are using the 8th edi­tion O’Brien & Markas text­book again this term.
