CS 100 - Computer Literacy, Fall 2004
MP 1 - Create your own home page
Due Date: Monday 10/11/2002 at 11:59 pm
There are no constraints here: your network identity is in your own hands.
Once you create your home page, the UIC will automatically make
it available to the world. You are free to look as brilliant (or stupid) as
you choose. Needless to say, however, you must steer clear of obscenity,
slander, copyright violation, and the like. (See the ACCC
Computer Usage Policy statement for more information).
Your page must contain the following (you may do more than this):
- a title (preferably your name)
- your name somewhere in the body of the page
- your e-mail address
- the time of your lab
- two paragraphs about yourself (where you're from, what you're
interested in, etc.). Remember a paragraph is a collection of multiple
sentences.
- a picture created by you (you can scan it in - there is a scanner
in the ACCC computer lab in SSB 2300). A good idea is to put a picture
of yourself on your homepage.
- another picture, grabbed from somewhere on the web, with
a link to the page that you grabbed it from. Be sure to state the
web site were you got this picture from, otherwise you could be accused
of plagerism. These pictures should not be modified and do NOT grab
copyrighted images. Royalty-free images can be obtained from
web as well.
- a link back to the CS 100 home page.
- at least three additional links to other Web pages on the Internet
reflecting your interests
Grading is straighforward. It will be out of a maximum of 100 points.
- Twenty points for items #1, #2, #3 and #4.
- Twenty points for item #5.
- Twenty points for item #6.
- Twenty points for item #7.
- Twenty points for items #8 and #9.
One or more misspelled words will also cost you five points.
If your page is not accessible, you will receive zero (0)
points for the assignment.
Remember: we will not accept late assignments.
You are to make this page your home page on your Icarus account.
You are also to submit your page via the Unix turnin command. The
project name for this assignment is mp1.
