booth at the airport, well, all this technology advances that make your life easier, will land
eventually on a network, with IP addresses interconnected to other networks. That is the
subject of this class from the basic principles to the point where you can explain yourself the path from the “click” you just did on Instagram all the way to the picture file your friend or
followers are receiving. This is Cisco ITN – Introduction to Networks.

Welcome to ITCC 1414
Welcome to the ITCC 1414 Introduction to Networks or ITN for short. I am very excited to
have you as students in the course, and to share my experience and knowledge with you.
Outside our class meetings, please communicate with me through the Cisco NetAcad, (www.netacad.com) not the Canvas from hccs site for the course. That communication can
be through the Discussion topics posted on NetAcad, or privately through the NetAcad email
tool. Announcements will appear in the “Updates from OP” Discussion topic.
Please be sure to follow the syllabus as a reference for any important dates, to plan for the
semester, and to review HCC policies. The best way to really discuss issues is in person. I’m
available during the week to answer your questions. Please visit me or email me on NetAcad whenever you have a question.
Prerequisites and/or Co-Requisites
ITCC 1414 requires college-level reading and writing skills. Research indicates that you are
most likely to succeed if you have already taken and passed ENGL 1301. The minimum
requirements for enrollment in ITCC 1414 include placement in college-level reading (or take INRW 0420 or ESOL 0360 as a co-requisite) and some computer configuration knowledge
from CompTIA A+, but not mandatory. If you had enrolled in this course having satisfied
these prerequisites, you have a higher chance of success than students who have not done so. Please carefully read and consider the repeater policy in the HCCS Student Handbook.
Canvas Learning Management System
This section of ITCC 1414 uses Cisco NetAcad http://www.NetAcad.com (NOT hccs Canvas
https://eagleonline.hccs.edu) to supplement in-class assignments, exams, and activities.
Please follow all the modules on Cisco NetAcad Canvas and be sure to start with the first
chapter titled “Chapter 0 Course Introduction.” You use NetAcad to access all the course material including: class notes, exams, videos, labs, and so on. You also use NetAcad to take
your Midterm, SICs (Skill Integration Challenges) and Final exams.
HCCS Open Lab locations may be used to access the Internet and NetAcad. USE FIREFOX
OR CHROME AS THE INTERNET BROWSER.

Student Success Expect to spend at least tree (3 – Yes three, TRES) as many hours per week outside of
classroom as you do in class studying the course content. Additional time will be required for
the assignments. The assignments provided will help you practice the concepts discussed in class lectures and on your hands-on skills. Successful completion of this course requires a
combination of the following:
Reading and practicing on Cisco NetAcad. As you read PLEASE take notes.
Attending class in person and/or online Completing assignments
Participating in class activities
There is no short cut for success in ITN; it requires reading and studying the material and more importantly, completing the assignments, for which you will require to devote important
time after class.
Instructor and Student Responsibilities As your Instructor, it is my responsibility to:
Provide the grading scale and detailed grading formula explaining how student grades
are to be derived
Facilitate an effective learning environment through learner-centered instructional techniques
Provide a description of assignments
Inform students of policies such as attendance, withdrawal, tardiness, and making up assignments
Provide the course outline and class calendar
Arrange to meet with individual students as needed
[email protected] CISCO ITN – CCNA1 V 1.0 8/30/2019

As a student, it is your responsibility to: Attend class in person and/or online
Participate actively by reviewing course material, interacting with classmates, and
responding promptly in your communication with me
Read and comprehend the Cisco NetAcad material and / or the book if you acquire it. Complete the required assignments and exams
Ask for help when there is a question or problem
Keep copies of all paperwork (few), including this syllabus, handouts, and all assignments
Be aware of and comply with academic honesty policies in the HCCS Student Handbook
Assignments, Exams, and Activities
Packet tracers skills assessments
Exams are individual efforts during the scheduled class meetings. Other activities such as
labs and projects are team efforts.
Lab Assignments and Packet tracer simulator
Each module within Cisco NetAcad course will contain detailed assignment instructions and
a quiz and a chapter exam, so that students will understand the specific requirements for that module.
Discussions
Discussion topics on NetAcad are used for online communication for the class, and to handle
questions about content. Participation in the discussions counts in the “participation” part of the grading rubric. At least twice a week starting a meaningful topic or replying / adding
value to an existing one. (Does not count “Yep, I agreed with you”. )
Chapter Exams
Chapter Exams are short assessments administered online (NetAcad) each consisting of a set
of multiple-choice or true/false questions, covering material in one module. I will know if you
search the answers over the Internet. So please refrain to use that shortcut. Just read, take
notes and just take the chapter exam.
Midterm Exam
The midterm exam is scheduled, (Chapter 6 PT Skills Assessment) If this exam is missed, it
will be graded with zero. There is also a SIC 11.6.1 that is part of the Mid Term and it will be assigned / submitted online.
