Note to Anne:

I am reviewing the course descriptions on this site; when I have them finalized, please use them for the magazine & your office. server.  Let me know if I need to change the format of anything to facilitate this.  I could also use your help (to the extent politically possible) making sure the stuff on www. is consistent, too. 

I know you take great pains to ensure that office. reflects what I send you, I think any problems I had in the past are either with other outlets for course information or my own fault for getting confused by the flurry of e-mails of content.  If it is ok with you, I would like to declare the TWiki to be the official source of info on my classes.

1st Quarter Classes

-- RickArchibald - 15 Oct 2004

This page is for the use of the author & Anne Sipes in preparing the HAL-PC class schedule for inclusion in the Dec. edition of HAL-PC Magazine.

This is the (growing) list of my HAL-PC classes for Jan - Mar 2005

Basic Computer Use (BCU)

3 classes:

Basic Computer Use Time Date
Section Status Day Start Stop Begin End
2005-1  Scheduled   Wednesdays   3:25 pm   4:40 pm   Jan  5, 2005   Feb 23, 2005 
2005-2  Tentative    Fridays   3:00 pm   4:15 pm   Feb  3, 2005   Mar 24, 2005 
2005-3  Scheduled   Wednesdays   3:25 pm   4:40 pm   Mar  9, 2005    Apr 27, 2005  

Tuition is raised from  $45 / $35  to  $50 / $40.

Section 2005-1 is my "committed" class for the quarter. 

Section 2005-2 is an experiment, subject to cancellation.  Please schedule it, and let's see if it fills.

The complete 2005 schedule is here.   I would like to reserve the Learning Center now, please.

Linux Hands On

I have written to Marcel Gagné asking to use the book title "Moving to Linux" as the course title.  Please be prepared for a change.

Linux Hands On - Part 1

Tuition:  $75 / $60 (unchanged)
Text:  Prereqisites: 

Linux Hands On - Part 2

6 Mondays, 7:00 pm -- 8:30 pm
Jan. 10 -- Feb. 14
Tuition:  $75 / $60 (same)
Text:  Prereqisites: 
  • "Linux Hands On - Part 1" or
  • equivalent knowledge or
  • instructor's permission

The remaining 3 students from the current class have committed to Part 2; so I have also, regardless of how many additional students sign up. 

Linux Hands On - Part 3

6 Mondays, 7:00 pm -- 8:30 pm
Mar.  7 -- Apr. 11
Tuition:  $75 / $60 (same)
Text:  Prereqisites: 
  • "Linux Hands On - Part 2" or
  • equivalent knowledge or
  • instructor's permission

The remaining 3 students from the current class have definitely committed to Part 2, and have asked for Part 3; so I am scheduling it.
