Lectures 3 &amp; 4 use Macintosh computersin labs while Lectures 1 &amp; 2 use PC computers. Many software packagesallow you to switch back and forth between the Mac and the PC (we'll discussthis), but you may not switch between lectures 1 &amp; 2 and lectures 3&amp;4, as they are given by different lecturers. </P><P>The course has two components: </P><P><B>Part 1 - Lecture:</B> In the lecture we will discuss computers in&quot;generic&quot; terms, i.e. general computer science topics. We willdiscuss how computers work, including the following topics (not necessarilyin this order): </P><UL>  <LI>application programs (including word processors, spreadsheets, graphics  and databases) </LI>  <LI>hardware </LI>  <LI>input/output </LI>  <LI>storage devices </LI>  <LI>operating systems </LI>  <LI>programming languages </LI>  <LI>networks and telecommunications </LI>  <LI>artificial intelligence and expert systems </LI>  <LI>and computer related social issues </LI></UL><P>Whew! These topics are comparable to those you'll find in non-Macintoshenvironments. What you learn will be useful in the &quot;real world&quot;.Both lectures (9:30 and 11:00) will cover the same material. Lecture outlinesare available from DoIT/MACC for a small fee prior to the lecture. You mayattend either lecture (for exams you <B>need to</B> attend at the time forwhich you are registered). Exam material will be based on the lectures andtextbook. <B>Part 2 - Lab:</B> In the laboratory (discussion) sections youwill have hands-on experience on Macintosh IIci computers with the followingprograms: </P><UL>  <LI>word processing (MS Word 5.0), </LI>  <LI>painting and drawing (Aldus SuperPaint 3.0), </LI>  <LI>electronic mail (Eudora 3.0) and navigating the Internet (Netscape  3.0), </LI>  <LI>spreadsheet and charting (MS Excel 5.0), </LI>  <LI>database (Claris Filemaker II 1.1), </LI>  <LI>presentation manager (HyperCard 2.1), </LI>  <LI>and desktop publishing (Aldus PageMaker 4.0). </LI></UL><P>An integral part of lab is learning the Macintosh operating system (System7.5.3) as well. </P><P>In addition, there are some special tools (CD-ROM and scanners) available.There are 10 TAs that teach these sections. You will learn the name of yourTA and his/her office location and office hours at your first lab session.One or more of our TAs may speak English with a noticeable accent. In somecases, an accent might cause some initial difficulty in understanding, butin a short time such difficulties usually disappear and accents become familiarto one's ear. If for whatever reason you experience difficulties in understandingyour instructor, then requests for repeating sentences and for clarificationcan and should be made. Not only does this help you, the student, but italso helps your instructor in improving his or her presentations and inbecoming a more effective teacher. Other classroom difficulties can usuallybe cleared up by bringing them to the attention of your instructor eitherafter lecture or in her office. Both the TAs and I have the goal of providingyou with high quality instruction and a rich educational experience. </P><P><B>Yes, LABS meet starting on the first day of the semester.</B> </P><P><B>We have our own Macintosh computers</B>: The laboratory is locatedon the first floor of the Computer Science Building in Room 1366. The roomis along the hallway in the north-west corner of the building. </P><P><B>Disks</B>: You must have TWO 3.5 inch disks on which you will keepyour Macintosh projects. You should have two so you can save your work intwo locations. These disks may be purchased from MACC. Be sure that youbuy double sided high density diskettes. &quot;HD&quot; should be preprintedon the label of the diskettes you purchase. </P><P><B>Attendance</B>: You will not be graded on lecture attendance or participation.However, we strongly recommend lecture attendance and you are solely responsiblefor making sure that you do not miss assignment due dates and other classinformation including announcements, exam rooms and material covered onthe tests. </P><P><B>Let's be very clear</B>; the primary source of material for the courseis contained in the lectures. The textbook also contains material that willallow you to catch up and/or review some but not all of this material. Oldnotes from previous semesters are known to be sketchy and prone to errorsand are not recommended. Nothing can substitute for lecture attendance.</P><P>Lab attendance and class participation requirements are determined byeach TA. </P><P><B>Exam attendance is mandatory</B>: If you are ill and cannot attendan exam you must present some written dated proof of your excuse <B>and</B>notify Sally Peterson as early as possible PRIOR to the scheduled time ofan exam. Exam rooms are different than the lecture hall; exam rooms willbe posted in lab and are available from the department secretary if youforget (262-1204). </P><P><B>Assignments</B>: Tutorials are in the second textbook mentioned belowand are designed to be self-guiding tours through the various applicationsyour lab assignments are based on. You will get much more out of your limitedlab time if you READ THE TUTORIAL PRIOR to sitting down at the computer.The assignments will be given to you in lab class. Assignments must be doneusing the versions of the software programs we own. Assignments are dueby the end of lab on the due date. They must be turned in electronicallyand on paper. Since this frequently causes congestion at the printers, itis wise to print out each section of the assignment as you complete it.</P><P>Note that assignment due dates may be spread over a three day periodbecause there are classes which meet MW and TR only. In the course of thesemester each person will have approximately the same number of hours onthe computer. </P><P>If you have access to a Macintosh computer and any or all of this software(versions compatible with those that we use) you are welcome to work outsideof the lab. You may also work in 1366 at a different time than your regularlyscheduled lab, if there is space (students registered for that particularlab time always have priority). </P><P>You must hand in the assignment to YOUR TA and you must be able to showthat you are competent with the program. If you don't regularly attend lab,be sure to bring your disk when you turn in your assignment since you maybe asked by your TA to demonstrate the skills learned in the assignment.</P><P>There are laser printers in the lab for you to use for printing yourCS132 assignments. You are NOT to use them for printing personal documentsor papers for other courses; this is considered misuse of University property.There are laser printers you can use in the other Instructional Labs forthat purpose. </P><P><B>Extra Sunday Labs</B>: 1366 will be open and staffed by 132 TAs onSunday afternoons (starting September 10) between the hours of 1 - 4 pm.There will be a sign-up sheet posted (at 4 pm Friday) on the door of thelab for you to reserve a machine for a particular time. </P><P><B>Grading</B>: 50% of your grade is the average of your lab assignmentsand 50% is the average of your exams (15% for each exam). No extra creditis available. Incompletes are granted rarely, if ever. </P><P>Letter grades are assigned on the basis of the following distribution.We do not &quot;curve&quot; (it would be to your disadvantage if we didso because of the high grades most people make on labs). Usually gradesare higher for the lab assignments and lower on the exams. This is to beexpected since the lab assignments are very &quot;cookbookish&quot;. Ifyou follow the directions, you get the assignment done correctly. We workto ensure consistency of grades between sections. </P><PRE>        92 - 100    A        89 - 91     AB        82 - 88     B        79 - 81     BC        70 - 78     C        60 - 79     D        below 60    F</PRE><P><B>Lab Assignments</B>: Laboratory assignments are worth 100 points,20 points of which are for a quiz. The quiz on each topic will be givenin the lab period following the due date. Partial credit will be given forpartially completed assignments so always turn something in. Save your gradedquiz and exam papers and the files on your disks until you have checkedthe posted scores to be sure that your points are recorded correctly. </P><P><B>Late penalty</B>: The last assignment may <I>not</I>  be turned inlate (score = 0). Other assignments may be turned in up to ONE lab periodfollowing their due date, with 10% penalty. No assignment will be acceptedafter that time (score = 0). Remember that by delaying completion of oneassignment you get further behind in all the rest. The key to success inthis course is keeping up or AHEAD. Each student may have two &quot;free&quot;late penalties per semester. These late days are to be used if you mustbe out of town or if you are ill and may only be used one per assignment.Any lab assignments that are two or more lab periods late are worth zeropoints. This is a generous policy; there will be no exceptions. </P><P><B>Academic Honesty and Integrity</B>: All assignments must be YOUR OWNWORK. Although you are encouraged to communicate with each other on designand planning and on the use of the software, you may not have someone elsedo part or all of the work for you. </P><P>We at the University of Wisconsin-Madison &quot;believe that academichonesty and integrity are fundamental to the mission of higher educationand of the university. The university has a responsibility to promote academichonesty and integrity and to develop procedures to deal effectively withinstances of academic dishonesty. Students are responsible for the honestcompletion and representation of their work, making appropriate citationof sources, and for respect of others' academic endeavors. Students whoviolate these standards must be confronted and must accept the consequencesof their actions.&quot; (UWS 14.01) </P><P>If you are uncertain whether something is acceptable, ask your TA orSally Peterson, the instructor. It is your responsibility to understandclass rules and not leave your assignments on the hard disk or server. Ifyou do get caught cheating you may be withdrawn from or fail the class.We will prosecute cheaters to the maximum allowed under the UW Student Disciplinarycode. </P><P><B>Textbooks</B>: Copies of both texts are on reserve at Wendt Library.</P><UL>  <LI><EM>Information Technology and Society</EM> by Laudon, Traver, and  Laudon published by Wadsworth, 1995, <B>second edition</B></LI>  <LI><EM>Point, Click, and Drag - Using the Macintosh</EM> by Peterson/CS132  TAs, published by Harper Collins, 1996 - Fourth Edition. (The right one  is <B>purple</B>!) </LI></UL><P><B>Exams</B>: There will be two (2) exams. Each is worth 25% of yourtotal grade. We take exams by Lab Section in small rooms that <B>may</B>change. It is your responsibility to find these rooms (A list will be postedin our lab, outside my office, with the dept. secretaries, and in lectureshortly before each exam) </P><P>They are scheduled for: </P><UL>  <LI>Tuesday, October 22, 1996 (in lecture time period) </LI>  <LI>Wednesday, December 18, 1996 (final time - 5:05 pm) </LI></UL>
