CSC 261: Self-Directed Learning: Web Programming: 3

Description

Goals for CSC 261 are:

1. Upon completion of this course students will:
   1. Be able to create web pages with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and PHP
   2. Have developed skills in being a life long learner

Course outcomes for CSC 261 are:

• Upon complete of CSC 261, students will understand:
  • how to build web sites uses HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and PHP
    
  • security issues associated with websites
  • ethical issues associated with websites
  • how to structure their own self learning on future tasks.

Program outcomes for CSC 261 are:

1. Analyze a complex computing problem and to apply principles of computing and other relevant disciplines to identify solutions. (Computing student learning outcome 1)
2. Design, implement, and evaluate a computing-based solution to meet a given set of computing requirements in the context of the program’s discipline. (Computing student learning outcome 2)
3. Communicate effectively in a variety of professional contexts. (Computing student learning outcome 3)
4. Recognize professional responsibilities and make informed judgments in computing practice based on legal, ethical, and moral principles. (Computing student learning outcome 4)
5. Learn new areas of technology. (Computing student learning outcome 6)
6. Understand and use appropriate cloud technologies in specified areas (Computing student learning outcome 8)
7. Apply computer science theory and software development fundamentals to produce computing-based solutions. (Computer Science student learning outcome 1)
8. Support the delivery, use, and management of information systems within an information systems environment. (Computing and Information Systems student learning outcome 1)
9. Apply security principles and practices to maintain operations in the presence of risks and threats. (Cyber Security student learning outcome 1)

Integration

1. Self-learning at the application level by
   • having the technical material being covered by existing online lessons found in the ACM learning center and other professional sites
   • having discussions about how to get the most out of online lessons
   • demonstrating how to establish education goals, outcomes, and tasks to learn specific tasks.
2. Note taking at the application level by grading the notes students take while working through online lessons
3. Technical writing by requiring students to create at least one website covering a technical topic and grading it on the way it communicates the information
4. Professionalism at the application level by holding discussions about the differences between building websites for oneself/friends (as a hobby) and doing it as a job.
5. Security at the introductory level by covering at least two different security issues associated with website development
6. Ethics at an introductory level by discussing the responsibilities of a website provider for the content of the material posted on the website.
7. Verbal communications at the introductory level by requiring each student to make presentation (at least 5 minutes) discussing either what was learned in a lesson or presenting a website created by the student.
