CIS 198: Homework Assignments

Create a Word document for each Tutorial using an eight character filename by combining the first 5 letters in your last name, plus your first initial, plus the 2 digit assignment number corresponding to the Tutorial number. For example, my Tutorial 1 assignments would be saved in a Word document named HARRIH01.DOC

If your last name is less than 5 characters long, use your entire last name. Sam Fox would use FOXS01.DOC

Each Tutorial will have FOUR specific assignments:

    Tutorials: Work through the steps in the Tutorial, saving screen shots each time you're asked to print.

    Quick Checks: Type the answers to each Quick Check Session. Label each Quick Check Session with the page number. No need to retype questions, just start with the question number, followed by the answer. Note that the correct answers to each Quick Check Session can be found at the end of each Tutorial.

    Review Assignments: Work through the steps in the Review Assignments at the end of each Tutorial, saving screen shots each time you're asked to print.

    Case 1: (The first Tutorial calls them Projects not Cases)Work through the steps in the first Case Problem at the end of each Tutorial, saving screen shots each time you're asked to print.

IMPORTANT: Be sure to label each screen shot with the page number and step number.
NOTE: I will not be able to see everything from your screen shots.

How to paste screen shots into Word document:

    Omit all print instructions.

    Any time you're asked to print something, capture the screen image by pressing the PRINT SCREEN key (on the keyboard). This will copy your screen shot to the clipboard.

    Paste your screen shot into your Word document (CTRL + V or click Edit, then click Paste)

    Label each screen shot with the page number and step number.

 How to turn your assignments in electronically (copy your file to the homework folder):
    Double-click  on the desktop, then double-click  .

    Click START, FIND, COMPUTER. Type HARRIS and press ENTER key. Double-click Harris computer icon. You will see a yellow Homework folder.

    Close all open windows except Harris computer window and 3½ Floppy (A) window. If necessary, resize and move open windows so that both windows are visible.

    With the RIGHT mouse button, drag your homework file(s) from your 3½ Floppy (A) to the yellow Homework folder. When the homework folder turns blue it is selected. Once selected, release the mouse button to drop your homework file into the homework folder. You’ll see a pop up window asking if you want to Copy, Move, Create Shortcut, or Cancel. Click COPY.

    To verify that your assignment was turned in, double-click the homework folder and look up your assignment alphabetically. If it is not there, re-do step #4 above.

NOTE: All assignments are due upon completion. Please do not wait until the end of the semester to copy all your files. You run the risk of losing your disk, damaging your disk, or erasing your disk. Please do not erase your assignments off your disk until the end of the term. This way we will have two copies of your assignments; one in the homework folder and one on your disk – just in case a disk crashes. LAST DAY TO TURN IN ASSIGNMENTS is one week prior to the Final Exam.
