a. What does standard 2
indicate about the "SUBJECT" block of the "send" window of
each e-mail message? The subject block needs to
contain the 501 course number, followed by the assignment number, and my last
name.
b. Why is this
important? So that the e-mail will not be classified as
spam and will be directed in the correct folder for the professor.

What is the complete URL
for each of the three following Quick Links from the bottom of that
page? Also, please briefly describe what information you found to be of most
interest posted at each link.
Class Schedules : http://ve.csusb.edu/schedule.html I found this
information to be useful in scheduling for my fall quarter.
Admission : http://ve.csusb.edu/admission.html
I used this to guide me to the link
for on-line registration, which given the distance I live from the campus, was
necessarily of interest to me!
Questions : http://ve.csusb.edu/questions.html
I read carefully the answers regarding distance learning for the same
reason as above, but I remain hopeful that I will be able to participate in
some of the class sessions.

What information (link) did you find to be of most interest and why? I followed the link
for “What graduates have said about our courses” more out of curiosity than
anything else, but found there someone I know, Vance Bloom who teaches the ROP
program at Hemet High School.

http://ve.csusb.edu/credential.html
What do the letters CASE stand for and how might information on
this page be of value to you? Credential
Assistance for Students in Education. I
took 9 semester units in teaching back in 1989 at UCR when I started
teaching. I was supposed to take 12 and
get my designated subjects teaching credential, but the law changed and I was
not required by the college to finish those courses. Ever since then, I have been “grandfathered”
or something like that as I have never been asked for a credential at the
community college where I teach. So,
this is not the primary reason for my taking EVOC courses. However, in looking at this web page, there
is probably no reason I shouldn’t get this credential anyway.

If you
have a California Teaching Credential, search using your own name. Otherwise
use the name of someone you know who does have a California Teaching
credential. In either case, briefly describe what you found. I searched for “Terry Ireland”, a fellow
teacher at MSJC, and found that he has completed the following “
Preliminary
Designated Subjects Vocational Education Teaching Credential: Full-Time”. He leveraged his teaching credential into
getting out of auto repair and into full-time teaching at a high school ROP,
and example I may someday emulate.

Follow the link that leads to information about
"Designated Subjects Credentials" then indicate what type of
credential you have (or would like to get) and briefly describe what you
believe is the most important information you found about that credential. As I said above
(question 3), I do not have any pressing need for a teaching credential, but
now that it has been pointed out to me through this homework assignment, I see
no reason why I shouldn’t complete my credentialing prior to completing my BVE
degree, which is what I am really interested in. I found that I must also complete the health
course from the web information, though I was hoping this might already have
been accomplished since I took and passed an extremely difficult microbiology course
in community college. But, it had no CPR
or first aid provisions and otherwise does not fit the description givenL.

First, search for information about Ron Pendleton (the one who
is a professor at CSUSB) and indicate one thing you found to be of interest.
Second, search for information about any person you know and indicate their
name and one thing you found to be of interest. I
found an interesting link to a website that seemed to be partly in German where
Dr. Pendleton gives his thoughts on the book “Verbal Judo”. What I found interesting was not so much the
good things that Dr. Pendleton said but the rather negative things that others
said. In fact, this has me excited about
reading what I imagined would be a dull book!
Of course, what other person was I going to search for besides myself? Of course, every “Philip Fournier” on the first page of hits was someone else, me being of relatively small impact in a big world. But I did find this on page two http://www.motorage.com/motorage/author/authorDetail.jsp?id=2950.
I have written for trade magazines for six or seven years but was not aware that some of my stuff had been complied in this fashion. I also found references to myself in connection with my business and my book and the websites that sell the book.
