Required or Recommended Course Materials:
Required – Text: Adobe Dreamweaver CC, 2018 Release: The Professional Portfolio, Kendra, Against the Clock, 2016.
Required – Exam Voucher: Adobe Dreamweaver CC Certification Exam voucher. Students are required to take the Adobe Certification Exam at the end of the course. Students may purchase the exam voucher from the school’s testing center at Pinnell Square as they can get a better price on it. Please coordinate with Sheryl Givings or Colleen Moore at the testing center for a better price on the exam voucher. Please contact them via email: Sheryl – sgivings@nctc.edu and Colleen – camoore@nctc.edu.
Required – An account with a web hosting company such as GoDaddy.com, HostGator.com, or Bluehost.com, will be required to use by the end of the first week of class for setting up a remote site to host the web pages you will be creating in the course. Please utilize suggested guidelines by web hosting companies when registering your domain name. If you decide to use a hosting company other than the ones recommended, then you will need to make sure that they offer a C-panel, FTP access, MySQL database, scripting (PHP and JQuery). If they offer something called “Plex” instead of a C-panel, do not purchase! Plex does not do everything that the C-panel does and you will have problems if you get hosting with Plex. If you are unclear about this, then email me in Canvas.
Required – Adobe Dreamweaver CC 2018 software – if you have an older version, you might not be able to complete all labs. If you do not have this software, you have a few options:
a) Students can purchase from Adobe.com at academic pricing
b) Students can purchase a subscription to Adobe’s Creative Cloud – this has many benefits: access to ALL of their software, not just Dreamweaver; 20GB of online storage; it is licensed for 2 workstations, and it works on Macs and Windows computers. More info @ Adobe
c) Or, if students may come to the Corinth, Flower Mound, or Gainesville campuses and use the school’s computers with the Adobe Dreamweaver CC software on it.
Required – Flash Drive. You are required to keep all lab work until the end of the semester.

Regular and punctual attendance is expected of all students in all classes for which they have registered. All absences are considered to be unauthorized unless the student is absent due to illness or emergencies as determined by the instructor. It is the student responsibility to provide documentation as to the emergency for approval and judgement by the faculty member. Approved college sponsored activities are the only absences for which a student should not be held liable and only when provided by a college official ahead of the absence. Valid reasons for absence, however, do not relieve the student of the responsibility for making up required work. Students will not be allowed to make up an examination missed due to absence unless they have reasons acceptable to the instructor. A student who is compelled to be absent when a test is given should petition the instructor, in advance if possible, for permission to postpone the exam. Student will be dropped from a class by the Registrar upon recommendation of the instructor who feels the student has been justifiably absent or tardy a sufficient number of times to preclude meeting the course’s objectives. Persistent, unjustified absences from classes or laboratories will be considered sufficient cause for College officials to drop a student from the rolls of the College. From Board Policy FC (LOCAL)
Absences
Students absent (excused or unexcused) for TEN classes may receive an “F” for the course or be dropped from the course for classes that meet twice a week for a full semester.
Students absent (excused or unexcused) for FIVE classes may receive an “F” for the course or be dropped from the course for classes that meet once a week for a full semester or twice a week for an 8-week semester.
Online Students: Chapter Lesson assignments and Exams will be used to determine regular attendance for online students and the FIVE classes missed will apply for absences.
DISABILITY SERVICES (Office for Students with Disabilities)
The Office for Students with Disabilities (OSD) provides support services for students with disabilities, students enrolled in technical areas of study, and students who are classified as special populations (i.e. single parents).
Support services for students with disabilities might include appropriate and reasonable accommodations, or they may be in the form of personal counseling, academic counseling, career counseling, etc. Furthermore, OSD Counselors work with students to encourage self-advocacy and promote empowerment. The Counselors also provides resource information, disability-related information, and adaptive technology for students who qualify.
If you feel you have needs for services that the institution provides, please reach out to either Wayne Smith (940) 498-6207 or Yvonne Sandman (940) 668-4321. Alternative students may stop by Room 170 in Corinth or Room 110 in Gainesville.
