This one-semester course is intended as a practical, hands-on guide to help you understand some of the principle skills of information technology required during your college education. This course has 18 lessons organized into four units, plus four Unit Activities. Each lesson contains one or more Lesson Activities.
This course will cover principle concepts, such as basic computer hardware and information system software, desktop publishing, database management system, the Internet, privacy and legality in the context of online media, and social networking in the context of professional reach.
You will submit the Unit Activity documents to your teacher, and you will grade your work in the Lesson Activities by comparing them with given sample responses. The Unit Activities (submitted to the teacher) and the Lesson Activities (self-checked) are the major components of this course. There are other assessment components, namely the mastery test questions that feature along with the lesson; the pre- and post-test questions that come at the beginning and end of the unit respectively, and an end-of-semester test. All of these tests are a combination of simple multiple-choice questions and technology enhanced (TE) questions.
