Most of the learning in this course occurs through the hands-on problem solving that takes place in the eight labs and two assignments.
+
You will need a '''matrix''' computer account to do the ULI101 online tutorials and your review tutorials. If you have never logged into matrix
 +
before, check your '''[https://myseneca.ca MySeneca email]''' for confirmation that your matrix account was automatically created
 +
after you registered for ULI101. This should happen automatically if you are a new Seneca student and this
 +
is your first semester.
 +
<br><br>
 +
<b>Logging into Matrix Linux Account:</b> After successfully logging into matrix from the
 +
college computers, there are several other ways you can login to matrix depending on
 +
your operating system of choice.<br>Please see the following '''[https://wiki.cdot.senecacollege.ca/wiki/Tutorial_1:_Using_Your_Matrix_Server_Account#METHOD_1:_CONNECTING_TO_YOUR_MATRIX_ACCOUNT_FROM_YOUR_HOME_COMPUTER tutorial]''' for detailed instructions.

<u>Requirements for Success</u>
+
Be ready to specify the exact error message you received.
  
:* It is very important to stay up-to-date with the coursework, and to practice until you have confidently mastered each task.
+
You could also email the ITS helpDesk at: '''[mailto:servicedesk@senecacollege.ca servicedesk@senecacollege.ca]'''<br>
 +
It would help if you snap a picture of your screen or
 +
take a screen capture of your error message and attach to your email when you contact ServiceDesk through your MySeneca email.

:* All of the software used in this course is ''open source'' software, so you are free to use, modify, and redistribute it. This means that you can install it as many times as you want on as many different computers as you would like. It also means that you can tinker with it -- you can take it apart, see how it works, and put it back together in the same or a different way, limited only by your time and ambition. You are encouraged to experiment and question liberally.
 
 
:* The notes that you make during the labs and assignments are your reference material for the quizzes, tests, and assignments. Take really good notes, and if you have questions, experiment and consult with your professor.
 
 
:* Carefully read ALL lab instructions and check your work regularly. The labs have been designed with backup safeguards to prevent the student from losing their work. On the other hand, students may lose their work if they fail to follow lab instructions or accidentally forget their removable hard disks in the workstation's hard disk bay drive!

Welcome to ULI101 - Introduction to UNIX/Linux and the Internet

What This Course is About

Unix and Linux represent the operating system technology underlying many of the services of the Internet. This subject introduces students to Unix, Linux and the Internet.

Students will learn the core utilities to work productively in a Linux environment. Students will accomplish this by using the shell (i.e. command prompt), learn to configure their login accounts, manipulate data stored in files, effectively use Linux commands and utilities, and write simple shell scripts to automate simple tasks.

Accessing Your Linux Computer Account

You will need a matrix computer account to do the ULI101 online tutorials and your review tutorials. If you have never logged into matrix before, check your MySeneca email for confirmation that your matrix account was automatically created after you registered for ULI101. This should happen automatically if you are a new Seneca student and this is your first semester.

Logging into Matrix Linux Account: After successfully logging into matrix from the college computers, there are several other ways you can login to matrix depending on your operating system of choice.
Please see the following tutorial for detailed instructions.

In case of problems with:

  • logging into your matrix account
  • not seeing your home directory in your Matrix Account
  • any other matrix issue

If you require technical assistance, please click on the following link:
IT service desk. Phoning may resolve the issue sooner.

Be ready to specify the exact error message you received.

You could also email the ITS helpDesk at: servicedesk@senecacollege.ca
It would help if you snap a picture of your screen or take a screen capture of your error message and attach to your email when you contact ServiceDesk through your MySeneca email.

The Learning Center is a resource to assist students that additional course help, english reading / writing support and improving study skills.

Supported Learning Groups are peer-facilitated study sessions targeted to help students review course material for difficult courses. It is a student-driven, informal study group offered regularly where students can discuss course content, develop learning strategies, predict test items, compare notes and develop organizational tools while learning how to integrate course content and study skills together.

Benefits of Supported Learning Groups include:
  • Make efficient and effective use of study time
  • Build learning strategies that integrate course content with study techniques
  • Meet classmates as you improve teamwork ability and leadership skills
  • Stay on top, feel confident and be prepared for lectures, weekly tutorials, review tutorials, tests, etc.
