Grades: 9, 10, 11, 12

Couse description

What would happen if we didn’t have the Internet? The Internet is one example of a network, so you can only imagine why networking careers are essential. Start exploring the fundamentals of networking, learning about the different parts of a computer and hardware, network operating systems, and understanding how common network devices can be connected. Get hands-on and explore different types of cables used to create networks—even make cables in wired networking activities! Discover how to set up a network, troubleshoot problems, monitor network security, infrastructure, performance, and contribute to creating policies and procedures. This course also shows students how to build a network of spiritual mentors and fellow believers who can support you on your life journey. Students learn how to communicate and connect with God and how to be a light for God in the workplace. Students also learn to develop a biblical worldview toward technology, which can be applied to real life and their own use of technology.
