What is your subject about? A brief overview This subject provides an in-depth study of various internet technologies, from web applications to the underlying communication technologies. The main emphasis is to combine technical concepts with a high-level understanding of networks and the different protocol layers and communication media used in the internet. The subject covers emerging internet technologies and explores topics in detail such as network and data communication models. It further explores the concept of Internet of Everything (IoE) by introducing the pillars of IoE and the idea of connecting the unconnected. It discusses the design of web sites using programming languages such as Extensible HyperText Markup Language (XHTML) and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). The subject provides in-depth information on how communication amongst different web applications occurs by discussing and analysing different networking concepts along with the internet infrastructure. It discusses the next generation Internet Protocol (IP) system for the Internet and explains IPv6. In the application layer, it discusses the standard client-server protocols and Peer-to-Peer Paradigm. Learning outcomes On successful completion of this subject, you should: be able to explain and demonstrate various internet terminologies; be able to analyse the role and importance of internet technologies in the modern world; be able to investigate and describe emerging internet technologies such as the Internet of Everything (IoE) and web applications; be able to design web pages for the internet using programming languages such as XHTML and CSS; be able to evaluate and demonstrate how different application layer services such as client-server and Peer-to-Peer Paradigms work in the Internet.Charles Sturt University Subject Outline ITC560 201730 S I-31 January 2017-Version 1 Page of 2 17 Pass Requirements You must obtain at least 50% in both the examination and the total mark in order to pass this subject.

Timetable Learning, teaching and support strategies How you are expected to engage with the subject All of your subject materials are available on the Subject Interact2 site under the Topics link in the left hand side menu. I suggest that for each topic you read the learning objectives carefully, read the overview, follow the reading material in the text and then do the activity as suggested in the topic. Once you have a feel for what the topic is about try and make a good set of notes for your reference. The reading material and activities have been designed to help you complete assessment items successfully. In this subject there are many of opportunities for you to engage with me, with your peers and with the subject. I will be holding 2 hours of lecture and a 1 hour tutorial every week throughout the session where we can discuss content issues and assessment items. Before you attend a class you need to have looked at the relevant topic in the Interact2 site and read the text so that you can contribute to the class and derive more meaning from the activities that we will do. We will spend class time working through the topic questions, discussing them and preparing responses. It is helpful to have a small task to complete early in the session so that you have a focus in the subject from the very first day. This subject includes three topics (3, 4 & 5) related to Internet of Everything (IoE) from the CISCO Network Academy course. You need to be enrolled in the CISCO Network Academy to access these topics, so you are required to enrol by the end of the second week of session. I will ask you to provide your working email account so your CISCO Network Academy account details can be sent. Once you provide the email address, I will enrol you in the CISCO Network Academy course. For topics 3 - 5, there is a practice quiz at the end of each topic that you need to attempt once you finish the topic. Your first assessment item, online quiz, is based on these practice quizzes. If you are not enrolled in the CISCO Network Academy by the end of the second week of session, I may contact you by phone or email to have a chat about study and if there are any issues that I can help you with.Don't forget I am here to help - so contact me if you have any questions or chat with your peers on the discussion board.

Due date: 19-May-2017 Return date: 09-Jun-2017 Submission method options Alternative submission method Task You may have a personal portfolio website for a number of reasons. If you’re a freelancer, then you’d need one to showcase your work and allow people to contact you. For a student (or unemployed), the portfolio can be used to show your work to prospective employers. If you’re part of a studio, then you might use one to blog about your design life, show people what you’re doing and build your online presence. Include all the skills you have achieved, the activities you are involved in, previous experience, qualification and more about yourself. A personal portfolio website is all about promoting you. You are a brand, and your name is a brand name. No one is going to know about your brand unless you get it out there; and if you’re a Web designer, developer, writer, gamer etc, then it’s essential that you have a good portfolio website. Getting Web Server Account on CSU Web Servers Do these steps early, if you have difficulties accessing the Web Server contact Student Central in the first instance. If you can’t resolve problems quickly, contact your Subject Coordinator as soon as possible. Go to the web site http://www.csu.edu.au/webpublishing/personal.htm Go to “Students? Your personal publishing information is "here” link and follow the instruction to get the web server account and how to publish your information. Keep in mind that the CSU web server allows a maximum size of data files up to 20MB. So your data files should be within this limit. At the completion of registration process, you should have a webpage address similar to http://csusap.csu.edu.au/~username (where username is your actual username) It will NOT be active until you place some files on the server. Then complete the following: Create a new HTML5 file named index.htm and save it in a folder with your Data Files. Add the appropriate doctype for HTML5 to the beginning of the file. Add a comment to the document head describing the document’s content and containing your name and the date. Add an appropriate page title to the document head. Set the character set of the file to UTF-8. Include at least one example of each of the following: structural elements such as the header, footer, section and aside elements grouping elements including a heading and a paragraph a text-level element an inline image a character entity reference or a character encoding number ordered or unordered list include an Internal Style Sheet which provides at least 2 type selectors and a universal selector Validate the web page(s) you have created using https://validator.w3.org (https://validator.w3.org/) (there should be no errors for HTML5) Structure your HTML5 code so that it’s easy for others to read and understand. Save your changes to the file, and then open it in your Web browser to verify that is readable. Upload your files to the web server account you have created on CSU web server. Verify that the web page you have created is linked to your own homepage e.g. http://csusap.csu.edu.au/~student Submit a document containing the full URL of your homepage through Turnitin (PDF orCharles Sturt University Subject Outline ITC560 201730 S I-31 January 2017-Version 1 Page of 12 17 11.

Extensions In order to ensure that other students who hand their assignments in on time are not disadvantaged, and to enable me to comply with the requirement to return assignments to the class within 15 working days, the following rules about extensions will be strictly enforced: Extensions be granted for on-line tests, as these have to be done within a specific cannot time frame, after which the answers are released to the class automatically. Computer problems (such as the speed of your computer) and normal work-related pressures and family commitments do constitute sufficient reasons for the granting of extensions. not If it becomes obvious that you are not going to be able to submit an assignment on time because of an unavoidable problem, you must submit your request for an extension to the Subject Lecturer . in writing (email is acceptable) to the due date priorCharles Sturt University Subject Outline ITC560 201730 S I-31 January 2017-Version 1 Page of 15 17 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Requests for extensions will not be granted on or after the due date so you must make sure that any extension is requested the day on which the assignment is due. prior to You are expected to do all you can to meet assignment deadlines. Work and family- related pressures do not normally constitute sufficient reasons for the granting of extensions or incomplete grades. If you apply for an extension, you may be asked to email your lecturer with what you have done so far on the assignment. You must be able to provide (such as a certificate from a doctor or documentary evidence counsellor) justifying the need for an extension as soon as practicable - but please note that if the circumstances giving rise to the request for an extension arise on a day when you cannot get documentary evidence, you must still apply for the extension and before the due date submit the documentary evidence afterwards. Given the tight deadlines involved in returning assignments to students and putting feedback on Turnitin, the maximum extension granted generally will be seven (7) days from the . due date Assignments received more than 10 days after the due date or extension date will not be marked unless the staff member decides otherwise. Items received late will be penalised at 10% of the mark available for the assessment item per day it is late (see below). Note that for purposes of measuring lateness, the 'day' begins just after 00.00 hrs AEST - so an assignment received after midnight of the due date will be penalised 10% for lateness. This rule will be applied to all students uniformly. Penalties for Late Submission The penalty for late submission of an assessment task (without obtaining the Subject Coordinator's approval for an extension) will be: , of the maximum marks allocated for the assessment 10% deduction per day, including weekends task, i.e. 1 day late 10% deduction, or 2 days late 20% deduction. An example of the calculation would be: Maximum marks allocated = 20 Penalty for one day late = 2 marks (so, a score of 18/20 becomes 16/20 and a score of 12/20 becomes 10/20). If an assignment is due on a Friday but is not submitted until the following Tuesday, then the penalty will be four days (40% deduction or 8 marks in the example above). Submissions more than 10 days late will be acknowledged as received but will not be marked. Resubmission Under normal circumstances resubmission of assessment items will not be accepted for any of the assessments required in this subject. Online Submission Assessment items that are completed within the Interact2 site, such as quizzes, tests and self and peer assessments in the blog and wiki are noted in the assessment section above.

Student Feedback and Learning Analytics Evaluation of Subjects CSU values constructive feedback and relies on high response rates to Subject Experience Surveys (SES) to enhance teaching. Responses are fed back anonymously to Subject Coordinators and Heads of Schools to form the basis for subject enhancement and recognition of excellence in teaching. Schools report on their evaluation data; highlighting good practice and documenting how problems have been addressed. You can view a summary of survey results via the Student Portal SES Results (https://student.csu.edu.au/study/subject-experience-survey-results) page. We strongly encourage you to complete your online Subject Experience Surveys. You will be provided with links to your surveys via email when they open three [3] weeks before the end of session.
