Participation: 91

You must logon to the class Canvas site at least once a week. If an entire week goes by with no activity on your part 92 either through attendance in Canvas, email communication or completion of a graded event you will be dropped 93 from the class. It is therefore imperative that you let me know if for any reason your participation in the class will be 94 interrupted. It is your responsibility to keep up with the class schedule and to complete graded events when they are 95 available. Various graded events are available for specific time periods. Graded events must be completed during 96 the time they are available--no exceptions! Once dropped from the class you will not be reinstated for any reason. 97 Just logging on to the course software product LabSim Network Pro is not sufficient to satisfy this logon requirement. 98 You must logon to the class Canvas site at least once per week in order to satisfy course attendance requirements. 99 100

Email Communication: 101

Any time you communicate with me via email you MUST put the course number (CIS 125) in the subject line of your 102 email. For example: “Subject: CIS 125 Question about network architectures”. IF YOU DO NOT PUT THE CLASS 103 NUMBER IN THE SUBJECT LINE I MAY NOT RECEIVE YOUR EMAIL SINCE I USE FILTERS ON MY EMAIL ACCOUNT. I have 104 up to 210 students in five different class sections during any given semester--it is difficult to tell what class you are in 105 unless you specify in your email. Also make sure your name is somewhere in the email--I can’t always tell who 106 “[email protected]” is …I’m sure you understand!—REMEMBER THIS—IT IS IMPORTANT! 107 108

Certification Exam Information: 109

Upon completion of this class students desiring to take the CompTIA Network+ Certification exams should be 110 prepared to successfully pass the current Network+ exam. Certification exams must be scheduled, paid for, and 111 completed at an official CompTIA Certification Exam Center. Further information about where to take the 112 certification exam will be provided. In addition to this class I suggest you review additional Network+ certification 113 exam study material to include web-based materials, study guides, sample practice question guides, additional 114 reference material, and the CompTIA web site prior to taking the exam. 115 116

Orientation Quiz: 117

In order for me to determine that you are correctly enrolled in this class, are active in Canvas, and are familiar with 118 class policies and procedures you are required to take an Orientation Quiz by 11:00 pm Wednesday of the first week 119 of class. See Canvas Announcements and the 1st week of the class schedule below for further information. The 120 Orientation Quiz is contained in the Week 01 link of the Modules menu item on the class Canvas site. Failure to take 121 this quiz by the due date will result in you being dropped from the class. 122 123

Graded Events: 124

This class consists of assignments and graded events contained in Canvas and LabSim Network Pro. These events 125 must be completed according to the class schedule attached to the end of this syllabus. The Network Pro Grading 126 Document is also attached to the end of this document and contains a list of all required and optional/not graded 127 assignments for this class. Carefully review this document--you cannot complete the course without referring to this 128 document. Graded events consist of the following: 129 130

LabSim Exam Practice Questions (graded). Exam practice questions are contained in each module. 131

You may take the exam practice questions as often as you like in order to increase your score. Your highest score is 132 recorded as your final grade for each of the exams. The exam practice questions will help you to answer the 133 questions contained in the optional Network Pro and Network+ certification practice exams at the end of the course 134 if you choose to complete them. 135 136

LabSim Labs (graded). There are multiple labs covering LabSim Network Pro material. Various labs will be 137

assigned throughout the semester. Many labs are not required. Check the LabSim Network Pro Grading Document 138

covered in the class. The exam is multiple choice. If you are unavailable to take the exam (due to a legitimate 143 reason) you must notify me prior to the exam date. If you take the exam for any reason other than the time it is 144 normally scheduled without notifying me ahead of time your exam results will be graded on a 75% scale. 145 146
