Hci 201

Problem 1

Use a definition list, tags dl dt dd , to define and / or explain the following terms. You have to use a search engine to find this information. Part of the purpose of this assignment is to get you using search engines to find information. At the end of your list you must provide a list of links to the web pages you used. You have to use at least 5 different sources (So you can't use Wikipedia for every question). You do not have to give detailed answers to these unless you want to. You have to use some styles, similar to Lab 3B

1. What does HCI stand for and give a sentence or two about HCI
2. What is a pixel
3. What is the screen resolution.
4. What is an IP address. Given an example of one.
5. What is the purpose of Domain Name System (DNS)
6. What is a packet. (Pertaining to computer networks)
7. What is TCP / IP
8. What is a router
9. What is a JPEG file
10. What is a GIF file

Requirements:

• Name your file hw2.html
• You have to use a definition list.
• You have to use some CSS styles, similar to Lab 3A.
• You have to provide a list of resources used to answer these questions. This would be a list of hyper links to the web pages. This list should appear after the definitions. Maybe you will use a horizontal rule hr tag to divide the page. Don't forget to title each division with a heading.
• Your html file must be uploaded to your account in a directory called hw which should be a sub directory of hci201

  So your URL would be:

              http://students.depaul.edu/~loginId/hci201/hw/hw2.html
   

  If you are not sure how to this you should probably schedule some time with me so I can sit down with you.

Turn in

Submit the above URL to me through the COL system. New COLtype the URL into the comment box.

If you are having problems uploading to your students account you can upload the HTML file to the COL system. This will not count as an acceptable form of submission but you will have 24 hours from the due date to get to the lab and upload your file to your students account. You can access your students account from any of the depaul labs. Properly submitting your file to your students account is part of the grade.
