T209 Page

I'm now officially done with the course and have PASSED!!! =) What I have that is in electronic format is listed here. I won't make anymore updates to it now that I'm done.

Binary

You can try this link, which was posted by Wendy Clark who posted it to the T209 National Conference.

Bookmarks

Would you like to visit some web sites that have been put in the National Conference? Well click here and those that make the cut will be added here throughout the course.

First Class

We'll be using First Class extensively for this course so you'll find all the help you need at this site. And in case you are a bit unsure of something you can try Sarah's Kinda Helpful site, which is very useful.

Memory - RAM, ROM, etc.

Want a link to understand RAM and ROM a bit more: try this site, or if it is gone then click here for a .pdf file.

Miscellaneous

Would you like some help on what DNS is all about? Well click here and thanks to Ferid Haddad for posting this on First Class.

I did a program summary of Robots Are Us that was on BBC4. If you'd like to view those notes (with outside links included - it is in .pdf format) click here.

My Notes

Well after some careful thought about how I was going to set up my notes I decided on using web pages as that could help me connect my notes together. There are separate notes for each module as the course is designed to be this way. It is unlike other OU courses where it is a progressive build up as each module is self-contained.

Please note: My notes in .pdf format you won't be able to copy anything or print them as stated they are for a view to learning.

Module 1
Acronyms List
Definitions List
Module 1 Notes

Sorry - my other modules are all scribbled in pen & pencil. So no more will be posted. =(

Other Notes of Use

Would you like some additional terms and such explained all in one Word file? Then click here, (the files is zipped up) donated by Mary Kennedy via First Class.

Want an electronic version in Word of the Workbook for Module 1? Then click here for a copy that is zipped up. Thanks to Mornev Nevitt who posted this via First Class.

TMA Help

Here is a link to some of the articles that are referenced. First there is the 'Mobilising Packet Data' by Roger Dettmer. Then there is 'Services via mobility portals' by Ralph, D. and Shephard, C. Both links are in .pdf format so you know the drill by now! If for some reason they are gone - email me (e-mail address on index page) and I can send them to you that way.

TMA Templates

If you'd like a TMA template then you can find a MS Word equivalent here. Thanks to Guy for letting me post it here. You can reach him by clicking here to let him know you find his tool useful.

Would you like a TMA planning template? I got this a while ago from a T171 conference (sorry to whoever's work this is and I've not given you credit - let me know who you are and I will!). I found it came in quite handy so have kept using it. Might be quite useful come ECA time! It is in Word97 format so you'll need that program. If you need it in .rtf format click here.

Revised: 12 December 2002 - no more revisions will be made.
