:* '''I like lab #1!''' Learning these manual override concepts are essential! Don't throw out the baby with the bathwater. My previous students loved the ability to use these tools to help "get them out of a situation". I wanted to make a YouTube video on practical use of skills used in lab #1...<br /><br />
:* '''I'm OK with ditching written test #2 ''' (but then how does this affect mark weighting?)<br /><br />
:* I think it could work if we just took one assignment and split it into 2 sections. I got idea from Chris Jankul when he was teaching OPS435. He had two stages (the second built upon the other). In this way, marking doesn't have to be "massive". I believe that students gain the most experience from performing the labs any-ways...<br /><br />
:* '''Which official version of Fedora are we using? (Fedora 16 live CD, and Fedora 16 DVD)? ''' Need confirmation, so I can test-out the labs.<br /><br />
:*In the future, I will just add content into this discussion area, but perhaps create a section in "user page" to preview my editing suggestions for feedback and confirmation to proceed by fellow OPS235 instructors. I want to start on this asap...<br /><br />
:* I also want to create some '''YouTube videos placed prior to the "Review Questions" section for ''' '''"Connecting the Dots"''' so to speak. These would be short videos to provide reasons why they are using these tools. Especially LAB1!! Hint, Hint, (i.e. I don't want students to lose lab1!!!!)<br /><br />
:* Which lab (i.e. in relation to "fall lab line-up") would be affected by '''SysVInit -> Systemd''' ?<br /><br />
:* Strong agreement with "re-factoring" web pages. I strongly believe in '''"forward" and "backward" linkages''' as well. Let's take a journey down a river (hopefully no waterfalls). In addition to preamble about what student will be performing, it would be nice to "tie-in" the previous lab to allow a "flow" ("end-to-end"). This would relate to a "forward linkage" of what students can expect in the next lab. I strongly believe that well designed courses provide a "flow". This is NOT to indicate "spoon-feeding", but a nice "fit" in a practical container (yet not too constrained). I like the steps listed in the "re-alignment".<br /><br />
