General Education Information Approved College Associate Degree GE Applicability CSU GE Applicability (Recommended-requires CSU approval) Cal-GETC Applicability (Recommended - Requires External Approval) IGETC Applicability (Recommended-requires CSU/UC approval) Articulation Information CSU Transferable Methods of Evaluation Essay Examinations Example: In an essay, discuss why 'bold' is not included as a font-style value in CSS. Include a discussion of the range of font weights and how to use those varying weights to achieve boldface fonts. Rubric Grading. Objective Examinations Example: 1. Sample question: Using the principle of ____, styles defined for each parent tag are transferred to its descendants. a. legacy b. generation c. inheritance d. fostering 2. Given a For loop counter of "for (i = 0; i <= 360; i += 60)", the counter values are a. 60, 120, 180, 240, 300, and 360. b. 0, 60, 120, 180, 240, 300, and 360. c. 0, 60, 120, 180, 240, and 300. d. 0, 120, 240, and 360. Projects Example: The semester project is an opportunity for you to apply what you have learned in class to a real-world situation. You get to choose the topic. The only requirement is that the project must incorporate some of the concepts and principles that you have learned in class this semester. The semester project must be an original web site. If your web site was not created from scratch, then you must show us what it looked like before you started. In other words, if you are planning to do a "makeover" on an existing web site, then you must show the "before" and "after", so that we have a clear picture of your involvement. Rubric Grading. Reports Example: Write a research paper that covers the following topic: The goal is to build a high-end gaming computer for under $1000. The requirements are listed below. Each group will present their findings and we will vote to see which group put together the best system. You must build your computer using individual components from different sources. For each component, you must show us an advertisement that lists the price. Also, for each component, you must explain the jargon (i.e., SCSI) and why you selected each of the options for that component. Rubric Grading. Repeatable No Methods of Instruction Laboratory Lecture/Discussion Distance Learning Lab: Following instructor discussion on HTML5 & CSS, students will complete a hands-on group computer activity based on the lecture. For example, have each group create a website using HTML5 & CSS. Tasks would be design, coding, and debugging. Students need to include spacing between letters, words, and lines using styles and also applying a background image to an element. The topic for the hands-on activity is chosen to reinforce the lecture and to prepare them for the homework assignment. (Laboratory Objectives 6 & 7) Lecture: Slide show presentation interspersed with topic-specific video clips and live demonstrations of programming techniques. For example, the lecture topic might be HTML5 & CSS. First, review background and general terminology using PowerPoint. Second, do a live demonstration on creating a website with HTML5 & CSS. Students are expected to participate during the lecture. (Lecture Objectives 2 & 3) Distance Learning Use an online discussion forum to facilitate writing. Require each student to post a minimum number of messages, the substantive content of which demonstrates critical thinking. The messages may be in response to questions posed by the instructor or may be as write-ups at the completion of laboratory assignments. Example of a question would be compare and contrast block-level elements and inline elements. (Lecture Objective 4) Typical Out of Class Assignments Reading Assignments 1. Read the assigned pages from the textbook and be prepared to discuss the use of HTML Tables in the context of page layout and be prepared to discuss in class. 2. Read the assigned pages from the textbook and be prepared to discuss in class the use of CSS to create dynamic web pages. Writing, Problem Solving or Performance 1. Complete all of the Case Studies at the end of the chapter and test the hypertext links on the web server to make sure that they work correctly. 2. Complete all of the Case Studies at the end of the chapter and test their web pages with a variety of external style sheets.
