Activity Map

What is this?
This document outlines the course content for Routing & Switching Essentials v5.0 and details all labs and
activities, including Hands-on Labs, Packet Tracer Activities, Interactive Media Activities, and Syntax Checker
Activities.
Where are the objectives for each section and chapter?

A complete listing of the course objectives is located at CCNA Routing and Switching (Instructor Resources).
Why do I want this document?

This document is intended to show instructors how each chapter's labs and activities integrate into the course
content, and to assist instructors in planning how students can complete those activities within the time constraints
of their course offering. An instructor might use this as a resource while creating weekly lesson plans. For example,
an instructor will make decisions on when to provide direct instruction; and will plan when and where students will
complete labs and activities both in class and outside of class.
How is this document structured?

There is a worksheet for each chapter of this course which provides an outline of the chapter content and how the
activities are placed within that content.
There are tabs for each course chapter. Each tab outlines the chapter and details all labs and activities. The details
of each lab or activity include its page within the course, the type of activity, the learning objectives, and equipment
needed to complete the lab.
How do I display specific types of activities for a chapter?

Each column contains an AutoFilter dropdown list.
Selecting (NonBlanks) in the Activity/Lab column will display all of the labs and activities for that chapter.
Additional filters can be used to display only the:

Hands-on Labs
PT Activities
Interactive Media Activities
Syntax Checker Activities
What are Hands-on Labs?

These activities use physical equipment in a classroom. Routers, switches, and different types of cabling are used to
provide learning support for the curriculum content. In some instances, the PDF accompanying the Hands-on Labs
may require students to answer general and reflection questions about the objectives specified in the labs.
What are the different types of Packet Tracer activities?
There are two types of PT activities included in the course:
PT Activity: Skills Practice -- These e-doing activities guide students through a specific skillset, providing just-in-
time skills reinforcement and practice.
PT Activity: Skills Integration Challenge -- These summary activities provide a skills integration challenge which
build upon skills learned in this chapter and in previous chapters.
It is important to note that Packet Tracer was not designed to replace the use of physical equipment in a classroom.
Packet Tracer is more than a network lab simulator, providing many other opportunities for instruction and learning.
What are Syntax Checker and Interactive Media Activities?

Syntax Checker and Interactive Media Activities are found in the content sections of the course. These types of
activities focus on providing command-configuration practice and learning checks of the content sections and
topics. They are integral to student learning and understanding of the content principles.
