FrontPage covered Chapter Four today, which dealt with a lot of web page enhancements. It seemed like a lot of you really enjoyed messing around with these… I can’t wait to see what you guys incorporate on your web site projects!
Oh, and thanks again for the gift certificate to You & Me!!! I think Cara and I are going to eat there Tuesday night!
Homework:
Today we covered Chapter Three, dealing with a company’s microenvironment, and the company’s macroenvironment. Great discussion today, we’ll continue next week!
Homework:
My word, we HAVE PUBLISHER INSTALLED!!! I don’t know what to do!
I know, let’s do a For Sale flyer, so that you guys can get a clear picture of just how easy Publisher makes our lives…
And that’s what we did. Judging from your reactions, I think you guys are going to really like Publisher.
Homework:
We started work on Chapter 5, which covered customizing your desktop environment. Since everyone seemed to know how to do this, and even things beyond what the chapter suggested (great job, Jessica), we let the class get hopelessly off schedule by letting Joe and Matt loose with the dirty jokes.
Then, after a brief break in which Joe and Jeremy traded phone stuff via Bluetooth, we reconvened for Chapter Six – Hardware. I took this opportunity to let Jessica dig around in a computer and Joe and Matt watched from the wings and offered their advice as I reviewed them from the A+ class.
Homework:
Today we celebrated 666 day by having a hard as #($* test! Actually, this test is similar to what you’ll find on the MS certifications, so suck it up!
Decent job on those, I curved big-time so grades wouldn’t get plummeted!
We then got into Chapter Seven, but due to the 5 lbs of snot in my head, my throat turning into sandpaper, and Tony having a little too much backdoor fun, we cut class a little short. We’ll catch up with the remainder of Chapter 7 and also do 8-9 next week! Get ready!
Homework:
Tonight we did Chapter Two, which involved several aspects of the IEEE 802 subcommittee.
Homework:
Hey hey hey! We finally have books! Ack! And with those books, we did a quick covering of chapters 1-3. We didn’t follow it to a “T” – I left some stuff out and included some extra stuff. Be thinking about what kind of topic you might want to build a website around. The second half of this class (July on) will be devoted to that site!
Homework:
Welcome back! Today we covered Chapter 2! Homework is Review Questions 2 & 5 as well as 10 of the Review Questions.
As we still didn’t have MS Publisher software installed, I made do with using Microsoft Word and we created our first publication – a For Sale sign! Everyone did a great job considering how finicky Word can be.
I heard back directly from one of the IT guys promising to get our software installed by next Thursday. This is more of a response than we’ve gotten so far, but I’m still skeptical. We shall see!
