Instructor: Maag

Course Description

This class is designed to introduce the student to the Internet and Internet Servers.

This class starts with simple Home Page terminology and functions to more complex Home Page construction techniques.

Teacher Expectations

As I am a eleventh year teacher at OGHS, my expectations are similar to the students. I expect each of us to teach each other something new ever day. I expect each of us to be willing to find new solutions to particular questions and Internet topics. And I expect each of us to be patient with each other and help teach others what we have learned.

Requirements

All students pay a $10.00 lab fee.

All students should have a notebook to keep handouts and notes in.

This is very important because you will not be able to take the computers home.

Class Rules

1. Be to class on time.

2. Bring materials to class.

3. Be willing to work with others to find Internet solutions.

4. No food, candies, drinks, etc. in the lab.

Classroom Management Procedures

1. First offense Teacher - Student conference (before/after/during class)

2. Second offense Teacher disciplinary action (assign detention or loss of privilege, etc.) Teacher will also contact parent by phone/letter.

3. Third offense Conference involving student, parent and teacher.

4. Fourth offense Referral to principal at which time the situation will be reviewed and any of the following will result: detention, Saturday detention, suspension, or expulsion from school.

Grading Policy

Grades will be computed as follows:

1. Work will be done on the schools home page with a grade given to the amount of work completed on the OGHS home page.

2. Test scores (35%) and projects and assignments (65%)

Absence Policy

Students are responsible to get the notes from fellow classmates when absent. If absent the day of a test, the student will make up the test upon return unless prior arrangements are made, or an extended absence has taken place. Since all work is done at the computers, some students will have to use study hall time, or time before or after school to catch up on the Internet assignments.

Keys to Success

1. Good school attendance

2. Do your own work. Do not panic if someone in the class is farther along with their work.

3. Try different approaches. Just because one approach does not work do not give up. Do not wait for your neighbor to bail you out!!!!!!
