Welcome to the Windows Command Line course! This is a single combined classroom/online course, but with two section numbers, one "online" and one "lecture." It doesn't matter which section number you enrolled in. It's taught in a classroom and online, at the same time: your instructor broadcasts the Wednesday night classroom lectures live on the web, and later puts recordings of the lectures on the Schedule page. You can attend either way, or both, including coming to the classroom one week and attending online the next, either live or recorded.

Getting Started:

Skip the Prerequisite: Do you know Windows, but you haven't taken the prerequisite "Exploring Microsoft Windows" course? Just print and fill out the Prerequisite Challenge Form, then fax it, mail it, or take it in. (More Admissions & Records Forms here.)

Read the Syllabus.
Make sure you have checked in to the CATE system, and established a user name and password. See #1 below for details.
The CATE system includes the Win-Cmd message list. See #2 below for details.
Open the Assignments & Exams Schedule, and begin the first lab exercise.
Go through the Elluminate Product Support Guide, to prepare yourself and your computer for the online lectures, starting Wednesday.
Attend the Tuesday night lectures, either in the classroom or online. If you miss a lecture, check the schedule page later for a link to the recording.

In this course, we use a message list, Win-Cmd, to ask questions about homework and lecture, share information, and discuss course content.
