Questionnaire

NOTE: filling out this questionnaire does not constitute signing up for this class. To sign up for this class, you must be officially registered for the class through the university.

NOTE: Fields marked with an asterisk^* are required!

*Your First Name^:**
*Your Last Name^:**
Your Preferred Nickname, if any:
*Your Preferred Email Address^:**

The email address will be used by the instructor, if necessary, to contact you between lectures.

Please read the course policy on Academic Integrity and acknowledge below.

I have read and understand the above policy

We will make use of the course webpage for many aspects of this course. Much of the information on that page will only be available to current students in the class. Furthermore, we will use the web for submitting assignments and for viewing your grades.

For these reasons, we ask that you create an identity and password for use in this course. You may choose whatever username and password you wish. Please note that:

For your username, please use only alphanumeric characters (e.g., letters and numbers)
For your password, you may choose any combination of letters, numbers and symbols, however no spaces should exist.
Please remember both the username and password which you choose. For both username and password, upper and lower case letters are not treated as the same. You must remember any capitalization you use.
The username and password has nothing to do with any of your existing computer accounts. In fact, for security it is wise that you pick a password which is different from any other passwords which you use elsewhere.

*Choose a username^:**
*Choose a password^:**
*Please Retype your password^:**

Note: This password might not be activated until the results of this questionnaire are processed by the instructor. At a later time, if you forget the password or wish to change it, please contact the instructor.

We hope to allow you to complete work for this course on the computer of your choice, and from varying locations. That said, we'd like to have some information on what you'd consider your likely "primary" working environment.

Where is your primary location?
Will this computer have access to the Internet? Yes No
What operating system will you be using?
What browser will you be using?

Finally, we ask several questions in order to gather information about familiarity with topics for students entering the class. This will help us in providing adequate support during the semester and perhaps in selecting material to be covered in the course.

What is your intended major?

Why have you decided to take this course?

Do you have experience writing computer programs?

If yes, in what language(s)?
