This is a 100% online class. I will set up your account and email your log on instructions on Feb. 4. All you need to do at this time is have a current email address on file with College of the Canyons and check that email on Feb. 4, 2013.
To check your email address on file at College of the Canyons use this LINK
It is very important to keep your email address up to date !If you do not receive your email with log on instructions by Feb. 5, 2013, email your instructor at chris.ferguson@canyons.edu
This course will NOT use Blackboard; there is no need to take the Blackboard orientation.
I am not a big fan of starting an online class early, Feb. 4, is the start date for this class. However, if you want to get a jump on course, here are three things you can do to prepare:
Title: Teach Yourself Javascript in 24 Hours Edition: 4th Author: Moncur Publisher: Sams Publishing, Copyright © 2009 ISBN: 0-672-32879-8
If you DO NOT have a web page, you can set up a FREE web page account at the following web host:
http://www.000webhost.com
DO NOT PAY FOR ANYTHING - ALWAYS TAKE THE FREE OPTION
The schedule of classes and the catalog both clearly state: Experience creating Web pages with HTML is strongly suggested prior to taking this course.
If your web page and HTML skills need work, please brush up on them now, before the class starts.
We will use BOTH Internet Explorer and Firefox for this class. However, Firefox has a built in Javascript debugger which will be very important for locating problems with your code:
Of course, you do not have to do any of these things until class starts.
Please note, scheduled courses can and do change, these courses are NOT guaranteed. You can check the current schedule at College of the Canyons
