Recommended for Winter 2015 semester to allow students to add previous reference sheets and/or lab log-books to existing material.<br />(For example, allow ULI101 reference sheet to be added to OPS235 lab logbook, OPS335 contains OPS235 lab logbook notes plus ULI101 reference sheet, etc). Would it be worthwhile to print empty ULI101 reference sheet with already created section headers so they can place commands in required area (students associate the type of tool to refer to get the job done). Action taken: Murray Saul notified Mark Fernandes of idea, Mark had a discussion with some of ULI101 faculty. The decision to not have reference sheets for ULI101 course was due to prevention of students cheating if answers to final exam obtained. '''Suggestion was made that a template Linux command reference sheet will be made to help students study prior to ULI101 final exam, and this standardized sheet can be added to the OPS235 lab log-book'''.<br><br>

It would be interesting to expose students to the zenity command to allow a menu to give user choice of report elements to include in the generated report. Perhaps a link to a "fancy" Bash shell script to generate a web-page so students can view the contents in a nice format. This scripting element could easily be added to assignment #1.

OPS235 Course Discussion

Course Overview (Purpose)

This project-based subject will teach students how to install and configure a Linux server. Further, students will learn how to connect to and communicate over a network in a controlled environment. They will learn how to manage their files on their system and how to set-up file and directory permissions. Students will manage basic system security and firewall settings. In order to configure their system, students will gain knowledge of a few basic Unix/Linux commands and be exposed to 'Shell' basics. Finally students will work with both text and graphical user interfaces.
