Welcome
to Virginia Montecino's Section 001 of NCLC 249, Internet Literacy
for Fall 2002. The subject of study is major aspects of the Internet -
Web publishing, evaluating Web sources, investigating virtual communities
and online communication, becoming knowledgeable about copyright and the
Internet, and other major Internet issues. We will discuss some basic hypertext
theory, and do a significant amount of reading, writing and critiquing.
Much of your course work will be published on your course Web site. Please
review the information on all of the links for a full description of the
course and relevant information, and my syllabus
for this section:
*The
work for this class must be original and not be used for any other class.
Participation: The
sharing of talent, knowledge, ideas, and questions is an important element
of a community of learners; therefore, active participation is required.
This includes attendance and engagement in discussion, both in class and
electronically. You are expected to come to class having read the material
and having completed all course work due when that class meets. (Always
bring your course work on a disk when you come to class.)
Quality of work, not just
completing it, determines the grade you earn on assignments. You will
be allowed to revise some of your written work (You will be notified which
ones are revisable.) with revision due dates. Here are the guidelines
for revision. I will not reevaluate revisions if these guidelines
have not been met.
