Teachning network storage technology: assessment outcomes and directions

Published: 16 October 2008 Publication History

Abstract

The paper presents content, delivery and assessment mechanisms used for an undergraduate course on Networked Storage Technology. We based the course on the EMC's vendor-neutral Storage Technology Fundamentals course and provided additional content fitting our respective degree programs. This paper provides a detail review of how the course fits into our curricula, what important enhancements are included in the content, and in particular, how it helps achieve the 2008 ABET assessment requirements.
