The
Glossary is an ongoing assignment. Each student will prepare a web page
in the site describing the acronym or term that is of interest in the
week's study. The expectation is that the web page (you have all been
given edit rights to this site) will be a summary of the research that
you have done about the specific term. All resources will be cited at
the end of the page. Simply copying verbatim from sites like Wikipedia
is not the intent of the assignment. Rather, the intent is to use your
synthesis and analysis skills to write a summary of the term in your own words to demonstrate that you have learned something about the acronym, term, or protocol. Use
whatever sources you like but write the page summary in your own words
and be sure to cite the sources appropriately. I have provided an
example with the Ping Page. | |
