Discovery 4: Designing and Supporting Computer Networks
WVEIS 1648
This course provides an introduction to collecting customer requirements, translating those requirements into equipment and
protocol needs, and creating a network topology which addresses the needs of the customer. Areas of study include network
design concepts, gathering network requirements, characterizing the existing network, identifying application impacts on
network designs, creating the network design, using IP addressing in the network design, prototyping campus networks,
prototyping the WAN, and preparing the proposal. Students will demonstrate knowledge and technical expertise in the skills
necessary to design small Enterprise LANs and WANs. Emphasis will be placed on personal and professional ethics, and
students will explore a variety of career opportunities. Students will utilize problem-solving techniques and participate in
laboratory activities to develop an understanding of course concepts, and teachers should provide each student with real world
learning opportunities and instruction related to occupations in networking. Safety instruction is integrated into all activities.
Students are encouraged to become active members of SkillsUSA for additional co-curricular opportunities that enhance
student achievement, develop student leadership, and support experiential learning. The West Virginia Standards for 21st
Century Learning include the following components: 21st Century Content Standards and 21st Century Learning Skills and
Technology Tools. All West Virginia teachers are responsible for classroom instruction that integrates learning skills, technology
tools, and content standards and objectives.
