LA30-1 Research Project Initial Planning Document Name David
Describe the purpose of inquiry or research
To get me ready for the 2009 regional skills competition in the IT Network Support category.
Scope means the range of the area covered by an activity, subject, or topic. What is not included in this research?
Describe the scope of the inquiry or research topic
I will be researching all items listed on the scope for the skills competition. They are:
*Understand IPv4 LAN concepts
*Troubleshoot a LAN connectivity problem on paper
*Install, remove and replace PC hardware components
*Configure incoming NAT on a m0n0wall router
*Install and configure debian-based gnu/linux desktop operating systems
*Install and configure Windows-based server operating systems
*Install and configure client and server applications and services
*Connect client and server computers to a network
*Connect client computer to the internet
*Make services on server safely available to outside networks
Identify the target audience
Everyone in the class and Mr.Phillips.
Identify the potential form for the presentation of inquiry or research findings, when applicable [such as a narrative, report, diary entry or biography
I'll make a power point with info on it and probably bring in a computer to take apart and re-assemble.
Select from a repertoire of effective strategies to develop appropriate inquiry or research plans that will address the topic and satisfy contextual and presentation requirements [for example, questions within questions, inquiry charts, preliminary interviews, and consultations with the teacher and/or librarian]
I will search forums, the W3 schools knowledge base, and look for rando guides through Google. If time allows I will interview Mrs.Pollock.
Page two
Select and describe strategies for developing an inquiry or research plan that will foster understanding [for example, use a research journal to keep and record reflections on the research process, clarify thinking, revisit initial perceptions and ask questions that lead to new research]
I will take my research home and test it out there on the my network. Every day I'll make a new list of things that I'll need to know and research those on that day.
Assess the breadth and depth of prior knowledge
What?
Ipv4 in an internet protocal
A LAN in a local area network
On all the other points, I know to much to list here.
Where?
Any place that there is a network ex.schools, office buildings, research labs
Why?
To coordinate data and share findings. So that you can have a computer work.
Who?
Sysadmins, linux gurus, hackers, developers
How?
You plug everything together and runs networking tools. A more complex description would be to long to list here.
Refine questions to further satisfy information needs and to guide the collection of new information
1. What is NAT traffic?
2.How is debian different from Ubuntu?
3.How do you configure servers?
4. What exactly in Ipv4?
