Course Objectives

Introduce students to creating dynamic web pages using ASP.NET 2.0. Students will learn server-side scripting, syntax, web controls, and connecting a database to web pages using the Visual Web Developer Express software. ASP.NET is a powerful server-based technology from Microsoft, designed to create dynamic and interactive HTML pages for the WWW or corporate intranet. It is used for ecommerce activities by making it possible for a company to personalize its web pages to certain types of users. ASP.NET is the technology of choice for ecommerce and interactive sites such as Microsoft, Dell, HP, and many others who have investment in Microsoft technology. Students will be introduced to the following concepts:

• What is ASP.NET
• ASP.NET framework
• Server-side and client-side scripting
• Using .net webcontrols to obtain information from users, form validation
• VB control structures (loops, conditions, procedures, functions)
• Connecting a web page to a database (retrieving, updating, and inserting data into a database), SQL, stored procedures, DataGrid, data binding,
• ASP.NET and email
• Error handling and debugging ASP.NET scripts

Course Work

Weekly homework assignments

Semester project

Grading

I use a point system based as follows:

Homeworks
70%

Quizes
10%

Project
20%

I will then assign grades using the following formula:

90-100% of Total Number of Points = A
70-79% of Total Number of Points = C

80-89% of Total Number of Points = B
60-69% of Total Number of Points = D

Credit (CR) is equal to a C or better
No Credit (NC)is equal to a D or less
Less than 60% = F

Student-to-Student Communication

Is student-to-student communication allowed?

YES! Use the forum. If you know the answer to a classmate's question please feel free to answer. In the real world this is like walking over to the cubicle next to you and asking your office mate if they know how to...(question concerning the course!)

There are NO bad/silly/stupid/dumb etc, questions...if you do not know - you do not know...period.

That's It If you have any Questions just Email me at
