Documentaries

Brief Course Description: Online@UGA awards one hour of credit and a grade of Satisfactory

or Unsatisfactory. In general, the course introduces students to the computing environment at

UGA and the basic software that they might need to produce and publicize a research-based

documentary. In particular, the course will cover the following topics:

1. Computing/technical resources on campus for students (UGA supported software, EITS

services, etc.)

2. Digital and electronic research resources (GIL, GALILEO, Web searching and siteevaluation)

3. Campus computer ethics and security policies and basic copyright law

4. Documentary production (iMovie, Movie Maker, Final Cut Pro, GarageBand)

5. Web authoring (html, css, )

In a one-hour course such as this, no topic can be covered in great depth. However, the course

does provide a sound introduction to the above topics in order to familiarize students with online

resources available on campus and to enable them to learn more on their own. Each section

will meet in a computer lab where students will receive hands-on, personalized instruction.

NOTE: Students in this class need some basic experience and familiarity with computers,

including an understanding of common terminology, of how to use a keyboard and mouse, and

of how to create and save files. Students without such experience should not enroll.

Required text: While we have no required text for this course, it is essential that students

check their UGA email accounts daily for assignments, announcements, etc. Also, students are

required to have a USB FlashDrive with adequate memory to store and organize our work this

semester.

Course Requirements and Credit: Online@UGA is a one-hour course that carries regular

graduation credit and is graded Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory. To receive a Satisfactory grade

in the course, students must attend class and complete the course project with a satisfactory

number of accrued points. Note: Students who have received credit for or are currently

enrolled in CSCI 1100-1100L will not receive credit for this class as well.

Attendance: Since many topics, particularly Web authoring, build on previous classes, regular

attendance is required. Students are allowed no more than the equivalent of three absences.

Each late arrival counts as one-half an absence. STUDENTS WHO ACCUMULATE MORE

THAN THE EQUIVALENT OF THREE AND A HALF ABSENCES WILL BE GIVEN A WF OR

U. Active or visible cell phones and audio devices (e.g., CD players, iPods) are not allowed in

class. After the first week of class, any student whose cell phone or audio device is visible or

sounds during class will be counted absent.

Course Project and Grade: In order to receive a Satisfactory (and thus receive credit for the

course), each student is required to complete a course project. A Satisfactory grade will beawarded to those students who turn in all assignments andaccrue at least 25 our of 42 points

total. Points are distributed as follows:

Annotated Bibliography 10 points

Documentary Movie 12 points

Planning Document/Script 10 points

Website 10 points

Late work: Missing or late work is not accepted unless the student has a documented,

reasonable reason for having not turned in the work. Depending on the reason, the instructors

may or may not accept it or may impose a grade penalty.

Academic Honesty: As in other classes at UGA, plagiarism in UNIV 1120 will not be tolerated,

and any cases of students presenting the work of others as their own may be subject to

discipline. To find out more about what constitutes the inappropriate or illegal use of another's

writing, creative work, or ideas, consult the University of Georgia publicationA Culture of

Honesty athttp://www.uga.edu/honesty/ahpd/culture_honesty.htm . Students are responsible

for knowing and abiding by the policies articulated in that publication.All academic work
