week of Sept. 7 -- 11 Intro / Operating Systems

The Course Outline was handed out.

Video tutorials for many parts of the course are at http://tinyurl.com/i0th.

You should create folders on your Home Drive for this course. The main folder should be named BTA.

We introduced our study of Operating Systems with a PowerPoint presentation. Then you found a set of questions in a Word file in the Pickup Folder. To answer the questions you read a PDF file (also in the Pickup Folder).



For another person's explanation of what an operating system is, you might try this 10-minute video which compares an operating system with a baby.
