OPS Stream Discussion

Overview

This WIKI is a collection of curriculum discussions held in May 1024 and January 6, 2015, as well as discussion from PAC committee meetings have been held several times during 2014. The term PAC stands for Program Advisory Committee. This committee consists of management, faculty, industry professionals, and former CNS/CTY students that meet to review and discuss the current curriculum and recommend or advise any changes that may need to be made. It is the intension of this WIKI to provide a collection point for ideas and collaboration between courses for the OPS Stream to assist in future curriculum development as a result of these PAC meetings.


Curriculum Discussion for each course in OPS Stream


General Finding from OPS Stream Discussion / Curriculum Review / Analysis

Key issues have been immediately identified (See each course "Curriculum Discussion" for detail):
  1. Tighten up wording of Learning Outcomes
  2. Check that learning outcomes apply to course delivery
  3. Missing central repository for all courses for consistent "cover-off" of materials, techniques, better supporting AODA, course start-up check-lists, etc.
  4. Tighten up overview or description of course to meet all learning outcomes
  5. How newer CPU implementation will affect delivery of courses like OPS235, OPS335, OPS535
  6. How will "Visualization" affect OPS Stream course delivery, and if so, when (eg. target dates)
  7. Students should be exposed to and reinforced shell scripting throughout stream from the beginning and add additional scripting skills throughout program duration
  8. Student should incorporate Linux commands in the form of a standardized reference sheet and that resource for be permitted in addition to lab logbook for evaluation in courses such as: OPS235, OPS335, OPS435, OPS535


General Definitions (Purpose) of OPS Streams

There are two basic diploma programs at Seneca College that utilize the OPS stream:

CNS (Computer Networking and Technical Support)
This program places emphasis on practical subjects and "hands-on" training delivered in specialty labs. These dedicated labs are configured for various environments such as Linux, Microsoft Windows, networking, OC hardware, Internet, AS/400, and RS/6000. Through these labs, students have access to stand-alone, clustered and networked PC's along with a host of LAN servers and mid-range computers.
CTY (Computer System Technology Overview)
Similar in certain respects to CNS program, but contains 2 additional semesters to allow students to specialize in areas such as: Security, Data Communications, and Network Administration.
