Labs
You are responsible for completing ALL of these labs. You must submit a lab report for each chapter (you may combine multiple labs from the chapter into a single report). If you work with a partner on a lab you only need to submit a single lab report for the two of you but it must have both your names on it. Each lab report is worth up to 20 points. This falls into the Labs/Homework category of your course grade.

Technical Presentation
In this class you and a partner will need to give a technical presentation on a topic of your choice related to the course. Your brief 10 minute presentation will be given towards the end of the course, see the course calendar for details. Additional details will be provided as the course progresses.
You MUST document your presentation on an e-folio site which will be checked again before you graduate to make certain you have achieved all of the workplace competencies skills which are required. See http://www.efoliominnesota.com for details on setting up an efolio site.
Example Topics Include:
- History of the Internet
- IP Addressing (Subnetting, VLSM, IPv6)
Grading
Your presentation grade will be comprised of three main areas, an instructor score, a peer score, and a score for completing quality peer evaluations of each presentation.
The instructor score is comprised of:
- Topic Content (30 Points)
- Was the topic appropriate for the course project? Was the content presented accurate and did it provide a good overview of the topic and the work done?
- Presentation Skills (30 Points)
- How well did the group do explaining the content? Were they able to adequately answer appropriate questions from the class? Was the presentation professional and well prepared?
- Engagement (20 Points)
- How well did the group engage the class in their presentation? This could include getting or asking questions of the class, using appropriate visual aids, etc.
- Overall Quality (20 Points)
- Did you learn something or get something clarified in your mind? Did you feel listening to this presentation was worth your time? Was this a “good” presentation?
Peer evaluations will be based on the same areas as the instructor score but the instructor score will be worth 100 points and the peer score (the average of all scores from your peers) worth 10 points of your final grade in this area.
You must complete a peer evaluation for all of the other groups presenting as well. These are graded based on how well you justify (explain) the scores you give in each of the areas as well as if the information you write will be helpful in improving future presentations. Also, do your scores match what you're saying? If you have complaints about the presentation and think there is anything they could have done better they should not be getting a perfect score. Think about how well you feel they met the criteria for each area of the presentation, assign points based on how they did or did not, and make sure you have ample constructive (helpful) comments to back it up.
Skills Final Exam
The Skills Final Exam is designed to test your ability to apply the concepts learned in this class and practiced in labs to common, real-world scenarios.
