COURSE OBJECTIVES—Upon completion, the student will be able to: Design, install and configure simple routed networks Configure routed and routing protocols and Access Control Lists Configure Cisco switches and VLAN’s Prepare for the CCNA ICND2 Exam 640-816 (see Resources & Links in the LMS) NOTE: This 2000 level internet class demands that the student be self motivated and self disciplined. You are responsible to keep up with the schedule, assignments, and exams, but I will be contacting you throughout the semester via the LMS and via email. You will be expected to read and comprehend approximately 75 pages from the textbook, view the instructor’s PowerPoint slides, participate in class discussions, and perform 1 or 2 labs every week. Since this is a 3 credit hour, 8 week class, you should expect to invest 8-10 hours per week in order to succeed…that’s averaging over an hour per day! You should not plan to wait until the last minute to begin your assignments, because some of the material is best absorbed in multiple shorter learning sessions. This is a very intense course of study, but it is a lot of fun, and very rewarding! Attendance Policy: On-campus attendance is not required in this 100% online internet course. Although this internet class is somewhat self paced, the student must discipline himself or herself to keep up with the scheduled weekly deadlines. Teaching methods: May include reading assignments, PowerPoint presentations, labs, class discussions, group work, scheduling, research, student presentations, problems, quizzes, and examinations. Grading System: 90% A, 80% B, 70% C, 60% D, below 60% F LMS: The Learning Management System for this course is Blackboard at https://bb.tulsacc.edu and will be used extensively for accessing and submitting assignments, class discussions, and taking exams. Check the class web site frequently, and view the chapter slides which your instructor has provided. Discussion Board: I will not be taking a grade on class participation. However, it is imperative that you check the discussion board at least once or twice each week, participate in any class discussions, ask for assistance, and offer your assistance to classmates. Since you are sharing the lab with other students, you must go here to reserve and release the lab equipment. Feel free to post info on CCNA certifications, current events, job openings, problems with the lab, or any other pertinent topics. Discussion participation will be taken into consideration for students with borderline grades. o Always reserve and release the lab equipment, since we are sharing it o Part of the reason for class discussions is to help one another o If you get lost or overwhelmed, please do not hesitate to post a message! o Students often share related work experiences in the discussion board Wiki: For those who would like to schedule weekly times to perform labs, you can reserve one of the the lab sets (devices 1-4 or 5-8) ahead of time. Note: Everyone must check the Wiki before making reservations in the discussion board. The Wiki is located under Communications / Wikis.

ACADEMIC DISHONESTY: Academic dishonesty (aka cheating, plagiarism) is defined as the deception of others about one’s own work or about the work of another. Academic dishonesty or misconduct is not condoned or tolerated at campuses within the Tulsa Community College system. Tulsa Community College adopts a policy delegating certain forms of authority for disciplinary action to the faculty. Such disciplinary actions delegated to the faculty include, but are not limited to, the dismissal of disrespectful or disorderly students from classes. For a first offense, the student will receive a “zero” for the assignment, and must sign a written warning. Any repeat offense will result in the student receiving an “F” grade for the course.
