Test Review 3 © R. Craig Collins, 2005/8

Before continuing, verify you are caught up with class participation discussions and MUDs.
To check your progress: in the D2L classlist, choose the circular blue icon next to your name;
to check your Discussion progress, use the dropdown Tool and select Discussions ...choose Apply.
You will need to scroll down to see which discussions you have and have not posted to.
Your participation grade will be penalized at the end of the semester for discussions you have not posted to.

Feel free to copy this to a word document and send it to me... I won't give you the right answers necessarily, but I'll let you know where you still need a little work. Hint: highlight the questions.

Now that you are mastering the theory, it is time to ramp up the tests a bit... This will be a fairly challenging test.

Just as there are no multiple choice job interviews, the third test is designed to see not what you recognize, but what you have learned. The test and review below, have more picky fill in the blank and short answer /short essay questions, where you have to write out a short phrase or a short paragraph to answer the question. You'll have 40-45 minutes for the test, so you will need fairly rapid recall to finish in the allotted time. Go over your completed review frequently, though, and you'll do just fine!

PS, The third part of the final will include the same information as Test 3.

I also suggest you Log into D2L, chooses Quizzes, then choose to take the Practice Test.

  • Create the frame: tag create columns = “size, remaining size”
    Code <frameset cols=”50%, *” >
    Load the first frame: tag page to load identify the area

    Code <frame src="two.htm" name="upper" > </frame>
    Load the last frame: tag page to load identify the area
    Code<frame src="three.htm" name="lower"> </frame>
    Close the right side

    Close the whole frame structure
    Example </frameset >
