Introduction to the Lab

• Windows XP clients
• Siam2 and z:\
  • z: needs to have a folder called MTD2.
  • This folder should contain a sub folder for each project.
  • These project folders are where you should store you projects and any work files you use while you are still working on them.
  • z: also needs to have a folder called pub (this is your public website)
  • You can get the sign up sheet here http://iam.colum.edu/tech/Web_Site_Sign_Up.htm if you do not have a pub folder
  • The pub folder needs to also have a folder called MTD2. This is the folder that is linked to from my http://imamp.colum.edu/mediawiki/index.php/MTD2_Student_Sites. Build and Maintain student website for class. For your homework this week please create a class portfolio website.

Here's an example of a really nice student folder http://iam.colum.edu/MTD2/ExampleStudentSite/MTD2/
You can download these files from http://iam.colum.edu/MTD2/ExampleStudentSite/MTD2/Hw1/MTD2.zip

There many more examples on the MTD2 Student Sites page. Be creative but make sure that you keep the design fairly simple as you will have to update the site weekly.
