CPT 299 announcement

CPT 299, Internet Skills

2 credits (not applicable to CPT degree requirements)

Are you:

Worried that all you know about the Internet is how to spell it (but you use a small "i")?
New to the Internet and frustrated because you can't find what you're looking for?
Experienced on the Internet, but overwhelmed by its immensity and complexity?

As Internet hype has entered the mainstream, Internet skills have become indispensable. For example, did you know that on the World Wide Web (WWW):

people can get a map to your house by just entering your name and city on a Web page? Although there are people who you want to have this information, do you want just anyone to know where you live?
there are so many search engines to help you to find information that there are pages devoted to searching?
there are agents and robots that you can instruct to find information for you?

As an added bonus, the course offers:

State-of-the-art computing facilities in the Department of Computer Technology
- Interactive video
- Internet services including electronic mail & IUPUI's bookbag
