Prerequisite:
There are no prerequisites, and no specific previous knowledge of computers is assumed. However, students will be expected to use computers and to access the World Wide Web. This course counts for the ``Diversity of Thought'' slot in the Core Curriculum. Note: This course is not designed for computer science majors, and credit in the course will not count toward a Computer Science degree.

Course Goals and Objectives: (See Goals and Objectives.).)

Grading: (See Grading Policy.)

Scholastic Dishonesty:
From the UTSA Undergraduate Catalog: The integrity of a university degree depends on the integrity of the work done for that degree by each student. The University expects a student to maintain a high standard of individual honor in his/her scholastic work.

General:
Friday, March 24, 2000, is the last day to drop this course. In general I don't give makeup quizzes, but just count the other course elements for greater credit.

Attendance in class is required in the sense that 10% of your grade depends on attendance. (See Grading Policy.) However, if you have to miss a class, I would like for you to find out from others what happened in the class.
