This assignment is meant to get you used to accessing the class home page, assignments, homework, and information that is located there.

You should use me when necessary. The course home page address (URL) is:

Do all of the following jobs.

• Access our course home page using an Internet browser (Internet Explorer, Safari, Chrome, or Firefox etc.) Read it very well.
• Read the CSCI 100 course syllabus so that you understand the rules of this course. This our official interface. Ask me about anything that you do not understand.
• Read then print the following web page.
  • Homework 1 (This assignment page)
• Go to the Student Information Form page. You can find a hyperlink to it on the CSCI 100 class home page. It is located in the links section on the left side of the page. Fill in all the fields with correct data for yourself then click the 'Submit Information Now!' button to send the information to your instructor. A page will appear after you submit your data. It will show a 'Success' or'Failure' message. Submit your information until you get a 'Success' message on the page. Print this 'Success' page and include it in the package of material you hand in for this assignment. If you forgot to print the page, just submit your information again then print the success page.
• Send a 'Hi there ...' e-mail note to me, here at Oneonta State.
• Sign up for the CSCI 100 Group on Facebook. You can find it by going to the following address.
  
  www.facebook.com/groups/csci100
  
  By joining the group, you are not giving access to your private information that, usually, only friends can view. A person can be a member of a group but not friends. You DO NOT have to become friends to join a group. If you do not have a Facebook account, please see me and I will help you establish one. They are free and easy to set up. You can even use a fake name if you would like to.

  Facebook Web Site

  This is a way for people in our class to exchange information easily. This includes me letting you know about special things like exams etc.

Staple all your printed pages together. The page on top (first page) should be your "Success Page" followed by the Homework 1 assignment. Hand your assignment to your instructor on or before the due date listed at the top of this page.
