Building our Class Resource Library

Web Resources

When you were checking out the class website I hope you noticed a very important page called the “Library.” We will be using the net quite a bit this semester. I could stay up late into the night and look up more and more and more websites, but then I thought…”why not have the students do that? Yeah! That’s the ticket!”

 

You may work with your team. Each team must locate twenty websites that pertain to your subject area that you’re studying. When you find the sites you are going to post them online on our chatboard at www.teechur.com/forum. In order to do this you must have an account on our board. If you have not yet done this (it was on the other assignment, so you should have), see me for help.

 

You are also going to copy and paste each site into a document and turn them into the unit. Have your team leader put ALL of the sites into one Word document, print it and turn it in on the last day of the unit.

 

Each team must have 20 different sites. No sites can be duplicated with any other team, so as soon as you have a site, run up to the computer and write it down!

 

Teams can choose from the following subject areas:

8  A+ Hardware Resources

8  A+ Operating System Resources

8  Network+ Resources

8  Windows 2003 or 2008 Server Resources
