=Lab Hours=
In addition to regularly scheduled class time a lab will be available for your use during during office hours on a first come, first served basis. Open lab time may also be available under the supervision of the lab assistant, see the [[Open Lab Schedule]] wiki page for more information. Students who do not show up for lab hours they have scheduled may be restricted from registering for lab hours in the future.

=Course Objectives=
The student will be able to:
* Develop strategies and apply the concepts of Variable Length Subnet Masking (VLSM)
* Configure and apply intermediate routing protocols (RIP v2, single-area OSPF, EIGRP)
* Use switching concepts and available switches to design efficient network data flow
* Apply the principles of Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) in a network design
* Set up, test and adapt Virtual LANs (VLANs) in a dynamic network environment
* Apply the principles of VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) in a VPN environment.

=Course Design=
This course will be taught as a hybrid style course with small group pacing. This means that you and your lab partner will be meeting regularly with the instructor during the course time to assess your progress and develop a schedule for assignments which you will be held to. Additional details about this are available on the course website.

=Assignments and Grading=
Grades will be determined by performance on unit multiple-choice tests, lab exercises or case studies, participation, and a final exam. A description of assignments is available from the course website. It is expected that assignments will be completed and turned in on time and as specified.

Failure to turn in one or more assignments without approval from the instructor may result in an additional lack of participation penalty of up to 20% of your course grade depending on the type of the assignment.

==Late Assignments and Extensions==
If assignments are turned in late 10% will be deducted for each day or partial day the assignment is late. '''If you are turning in an assignment late you must contact the instructor for information before the due date. Failure to do so may result in additional penalties.''' The grading of late assignments is given a lower priority and may take longer so students are encouraged to plan ahead and turn in assignments on time. Deadline extensions will not be given without written documentation from a licensed medical practitioner or other extenuating circumstances at the discretion of the instructor.

==Grading Scale==
{|
| A
| 100-90%
| B
| 89-80%
| C
| 79-70%
| D
| 69-65%
| F
| < 64%
|}

A = achievement that is outstanding relative to the level necessary to meet course requirements.

B = achievement that is significantly above the level necessary to meet course requirements.

C = achievement that meets the course requirements in every respect.

D = achievement that is worthy of credit even though it fails to meet fully the course requirements.

F (or N) = Represents failure (or no credit) and signifies that the work was either (1) completed but at a level of achievement that is not worthy of credit or (2) was not completed and there was no agreement between the instructor and the student that the student would be awarded an I (see also I).

I = (Incomplete) Assigned at the discretion of the instructor when, due to extraordinary circumstances, e.g., hospitalization, a student is prevented from completing the work of the course on time. Requires a written agreement between instructor and student.

==Grading Method and Availability==
Grades for this course are calculated based on a weighted points system. Each assignment, quiz or test is assigned to one of the weighted categories below and is graded on a points system. Your percentage is calculated for each category by dividing the points earned in that category by the points available. Finally, your percentage earned in each category is multiplied by the weight of that category and these are added together. The instructor may round up based on student participation and individual improvement.

| 25%
|-
| Written Final Exam
| 15%

| Skills Based Final Exam

|}

Mid-Term grades are not officially distributed but assignment scores are made available in the online grade book and you may calculate your current course grade at any time using the above instructions and weighting.

==Extra Credit==
Students should not rely on extra credit to boost their grade and should instead complete each assignment to the best of their ability. However, from time to time extra credit opportunities may arise at which time they will be announced in class, by email and/or through the course website. Extra credit will be added to the Chapter Homework Assignments category.
