Computing/Information Literacy – 1 course (3 credits)
C/IL 102/102L Computing & Information Literacy/Lab
C/IL courses present computing as a tool that amplify intellectual ability. Students learn to make full use of digital
technology in the problem solving process to obtain, evaluate, and disseminate information. Laboratory exercises
introduce students to the use of relevant software tools, and this use is reinforced and broadened through lecture
assignments. Furthermore, students gain a conceptual understanding of how computer systems work and an appreciation
of the impact of this technology on society. Students completing any C/IL course will be adequately prepared
to make use of computing and information resources but are encouraged to take the variant most appropriate
for their major since each variant presents its own emphasis and specialized laboratory activities. 2 hours lecture
and 2 hours laboratory. Lecture and lab must be taken concurrently. Withdrawal from one requires withdrawal
from both. Students must pass both lecture and laboratory to receive credit for either. Students who earn credit for
any C/IL course may not earn credit for another C/IL course, or CMPS 102 or 104.
