Online Video Presentations
We are developing online video lectures (that can be used with the open knowledge checks review
questions and interactive problems) for students who are learning at a
distance -- whether because of the pandemic or simply because it is not possible to have a synchronous face-to-face
classroom experience. These are part of the material for an on-line (only) course that one of us (Jim) taught
in the Fall of 2020, with additional material added after that. We're making this available to anyone who'd
like to learn from this material, and hope folks will find them interesting and useful. There are a few missing
sections in chapters 5 and 6, which we're working on, with chapters 7 and 8 (which are typically
covered only briefly, if at all, in an introductory networking course) to follow.
Online lectures and review questions.
