Final Grades Posted

Hi Class,

I have posted your final activity, participation, final exam and final letter grades for the semester (All points are out of 100).  In terms of the final exam everyone did very well with the class average being a 87.39%.  In terms of your final grades the class average was an 89% which is fantastic as well.  Overall, everyone did very well in this class and you should all be very proud of the work you did this semester.  I was very impressed with you all.

If you would like to review your final exam or any aspect of your grades please let me know ASAP.  Grades have been posted to both our community site and TUPortal (which will upload overnight).

It was great having you all in the class and I really hope you all found the course interesting and valuable.

Good luck with the rest of your finals and have a great break!!

Hi Class, Good work last night.  To recap: We covered Web Applications security, including coverage of the Top 10 most common vulnerabilities.  In addition, we went through and completed the Web Hacking Exercise using Mozilla Firefox, the Web Developer toolbar and Tamper Data (Remember: you need an older version of Mozilla to download this tool). We will not have class next week due to the Thanksgiving Holiday.  We will meet again for our final in-class session on 11/30 to hold a review for the final and cover any other topics you’d like to discuss. As I mentioned last night the final will be a take home final that will be completed remotely during our normal class time on 12/7/17 from 5:30-8pm.  I will e-mail you the final exam in a Word Doc.  You will then complete the final in the word doc and e-mail it back to me by 8pm. I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving break and see you all on 11/30.   Pat

To help spread out the remaining assignments I have extended some due dates for you all:

11/16/17 – Murach MySQL Chapter 4 Exercises 1-7

Hi Class,

Last night we moved onto Application Software and covered an overview of web servers and applications.  Additionally, we went through a hands-on breakthrough of IIS and Visual Studio.

Next week we will onto programming languages, specifically C#,  which is used to create applications similar to how SQL is used to work with databases.  As a reminder next week will be conducted via a pre-recorded webex that I will be posting under Schedules and Materials for Week 11.  We will meet again in Alter Hall 602 on 11/16/17.
