- This is a summer course. Be prepared to work hard.
- Look at the course Schedule
to understand the tasks and assignment of the week.

- If you have any difficulty connecting to Internet, contact your
Internet Service Provider (ISP).
- If you have any technical difficulty or problems related to this
course, post it on D2L Discussion Board. Week 1: Problem and Solutions.
You will receive help from the entire class. If you have not received
your D2L account yet, you will have to contact the instructor as
soon as possible, using email: pliu@eiu.edu or phone (217)581-7426.
- You are required to participate in the "Problems and Solutions" discussion every week even if you do not have any problems.
- Of course, you are required to contribute to the Weekly Discussion every week.
- Look at the course web site. I will constantly update the notes
and resources sections based upon the needs of students.
- Deadline policy will be reinforced starting from this week.
- You need to do research on Oracle Technology Network, in order to
decide which version of Oracle you want to install. This decision
is mainly dependent upon the hardware of your computer. The instructor
will work with you with any version as long as you are willing to
buy him a lunch.
- Life Experience: During installation, please take note on everything
you enter into the computer screens. Particularly, you need write
down all the parameters including passwords. In case you are getting
old as fast as the instructor, you will not be able to remember all
details of your input. If disaster strikes and you have problems with
the database, it will take you whole lot less time to resolve any
problems. This seems to be very trivial. But, it is super important
for professionals working in the field.
