Hello 032 students - This is an update on homework due Saturday Dec 20

INTERNET EVALUATING WEB SITES pp 3-4

Excercise 3 asks you to compare two web sites. You can't do this because one of the sites is not available. So instead please evaluate the site you can access according to the criteria given. Write your evaluation in the space for comparison on p. 3

Also, write in your blogs the TOPIC for your End of Semester project. I will look at these over the weekend.

Have a nice weekend,

Vance

This information has been placed in the INTRANET version of your Homework Assignments list, Nov 24, 2003. You'll find it on the Interent next day.

Before going away for your Eid holiday, I need to know how you're doing with your keyboarding. I need for you to write me a memo that explains your progress.

Here's how you do it:

1. Create an Excel spreadsheet like the one where you track your work with DOS Keyboarding Tutor
2. Enter your data in the spreadsheet (exercise, date, speed, and accuracy)
3. Use the chart wizard to create a line graph
4. Rename series 1 and 2 to Speed and Accuracy
5. Give the chart a title and label the X and Y axes
6. Produce a chart and copy it to your computer RAM
7. Open word and use File / New to create a MEMO
8. Delete the memo text (body) and paste your chart object there
9. Address the memo to your teacher
10. From you (and don't forget to include your ID)
11. Delete the cc (carbon copy, not needed)
12. Subject or Re: DOS Keyboard Tutor Progress Report
13. Write a paragraph (a few sentences) to REPORT (describe, explain) your progress
14. Your keyboarding mark will be taken from this memo

Thanks, and happy holidays
