Student Expectations and Procedures:Student Expectations and Procedures:

– Students are expected to obtain and actively use a computer account with access to the Internet and WebCT discussion site (the University provides such accounts free to enrolled students.) Students are expected to use anti-virus software and backup all work. Since the course will sometimes meet on-line it is of importance that you assure that your computer access can easily support the WebCT environment. WebCT Student Manual - http://www.courses.umd.edu/studentmanual/

– If you have a documented disability and wish to discuss academic accommodations please contact me as soon as possible.

– The citation style employed should be accurate, acceptable, and recognizable (MLA, Chicago or APA) practice. The American Psychological Association (APA: http://www.apa.org ) style of citation is preferred. For quick basics, visit:

• Columbia University Press - http://www.columbia.edu/cu/cup/cgos/idx_basic.html

– The University of Maryland has developed a policy describing appropriate academic conduct. Turning in assignments that use substantial portions of the work of others without attribution is considered plagiarizing and is specifically prohibited. Please review information regarding the Honor Code and other academic integrity policies at: http://www.jpo.umd.edu/conduct/conduct.html.

Backing Up Files - StrategiesBacking Up Files - Strategies

• Large Systems (i.e. Campus) should perform backups– Weekly – complete

– Daily – things that have changed

• If you save things to your local computer (or at home) you are on your own–Types of Personal Backups

• System – Back up everything – hard to do since software applications are big

• User Files– Back up all your working files (i.e. My Documents)

– The tricky part is where some applications “hide” their files

»Where is your mail saved?

»Where is your Addressbook/Contacts?

»Where are your Bookmarks/Favorites

»You have set up preferences that you will lose – i.e. network drives

– Assume you will have to reinstall OS/software


Backing Up Files - MediaBacking Up Files - Media• Large Systems

– Tape• May use “jukebox”

– RAID Arrays• Use multiple disks to store redundant info

– If you lose one disk, you don’t lose your info

• Home Use– Important files can go to floppy

– Save to Media• Floppy 1.4 MB

• Thumbdrive 64/128/256/512 MB and up

• CD – 703 MB

• DVD – 4.7 GB

• Tapes – Many GB

– Can also save to other computer


Backing Up Files - ExampleBacking Up Files - Example

• Computer with DVD writer (I have an external DVD so I can hook it directly to different computers)– Open software application – i.e Roxio

CD/DVD Creator• Choose files to be saved

• Burn DVD

• Buy back up software


PatchesPatchesPatches are fixes to computer programs. In most cases, we are talking about operating

systems, but they can apply to other software as well (usually called updates). Patches are generally applied to the OS to fix things that compromise the security of your system.

• Large systems have IT department dedicated to applying patches– Must be careful – patches may break software

– Only apply if directed by IT department

• Personal system– Windows

• Under start menu go to Windows Update

• Wait and then click on Scan Now

• Generally Critical Updates and Patches are needed and are selected automatically

• Be careful about other patches

• Click on Review and Install Patches, and then Install


VirusesViruses

• Viruses are software programs that take over part of your computer– They can be destructive – crash your computer

– Or “harmless” – use your computer (and Contacts list) to spam other people

• You MUST have Anti-virus software (you have your vaccines don’t you?)– Free Software from UMD

• McAfee VirusScan Enterprise Edition

– OIT Virus Notification

COMAR and COMAR and 508508 Regulations Regulations

• COMAR (Code of MD Regulations)– New regulation in Code of

Maryland Regulations on accessibility of technology-based instructional products (COMAR 13A.05.02.13H)

– 13A.05.02.03 Definitions B (5) Technology-based instructional products means instructional software, on-line resources, and computer-based equipment

Principles of Accessible Design

• Allow for customization based on user preference

• Provide equivalent access to auditory and visual content based on user preference

• Provide compatibility with assistive technologies and complete keyboard access

• Provide contextual and orientation information

• Follow specifications, standards, and/ or guidelines
