Overview 4 © R. Craig Collins, 2005/7

Items that should be accomplished before the beginning of the current time frame:
   • Finished Lab 1
   • Scanned Tutorial Two, sessions 1 and 2 (Rely primarily on MY material instead of this chapter)
Reminder: Did you check your TC WebMail? Did you check the Quarantine folder?
Did you check the D2L Dropbox, to View feedback? Did you check D2L Grades for feedback? (You may have to scroll down)

Items to accomplish during the current course time frame:

•Read\Review
   • Templates and Links
        Note: the link and vlink attributes modify the body tag; they determine the color of unclicked links and visited links...
                  ...however, the color change will currently work only on links to Internet sites, not files on your computer.
                  The color change will begin working once you post your web pages to the Internet
     • Bookmark Example
     • Sample web pages with links (right click, save; then right click zip file to extract)
   • Instructor notes on Tutorial (Refer primarily on MY material instead of this chapter)

About links on my webpages
I expect you to read each linked item above at least once.
Most of these linked web pages will have links, too.
Some of these links continue the topic, some of the links are for optional, additional information, but some links refer to pages you have already read...
those links are there not to force you to re-read a page you have already seen, but simply for easy access to something related, IF you need a reminder, for examples, etc.
