CCNA3_1-2-3 Cover Sheet

I. Decide Upon Audience (classroom learning environment, or “activity system”,

how does this activity fit? What prior knowledge does it assume? Is this a whole
class activity, small group activity, competitive-team activity, or individual activity?)

CCNA3 is envisioned as a CCNA 3, module 1 lab for small groups or individuals, as an

alternative to the hands-on lab on real routers.

II. Decide Upon Topic (semester, module, TI; claims, evidence, task)

CCNA 3, Module 3, TI 1.2.3

III. Decide Upon Design Pattern (modeling/inquiry concept-building problem OR

pre/post lab, configuration, skill building problem OR design problem OR
troubleshooting problem OR combination)

The design pattern here is skill building – it is not a modeling question, not a design
problem, and not a troubleshooting problem, but a step by step attempt to get students to
thoughtfully go through the configuration process.

IV. Decide Upon Type of Assignment (from scratch, pre-existing .pkt, .pka, multi-
step) and Type of Guidance (none, built-in, accompanying lab handout, or .swf
tutorial); from 1 .pkt you could have various .pka based on it

While primarily intended to be a stand alone .pka that students do several times to get
proficient, some teachers and learners prefer printed, lab-style instructions; we would
give the teachers the .pkt and .doc files so they can modify things as they see fit.

V. Author Activity Files (.pkt, .pka, .doc, .gif)

All files are included.

VI. Test and Edit

Files have been tested.
