This is a beginning course intended for students who plan to take additional computer programming or computer science courses. Emphasis in the course is divided between broad survey of the field of computer information systems and the acquisition of computer skills necessary for more advanced classes. Such skills would involve use of the operating system, file management techniques, use of an editor, and an introduction to programming.

Grade determination is ultimately at my discretion. I will make extensive use of this website to communicate with you. You are responsible for awareness of the information posted there, e.g., announcements, grade reports, assignments. Access the website from any SMC computer lab, or an internet-connected browser anywhere. You will submit many assignments into this folder.
