, Preface
Welcome to the Microsoft Official Academic Course (MOAC) program for Networking
Fundamentals. MOAC represents the collaboration between Microsoft Learning and John
Wiley & Sons, Inc. publishing company. Microsoft and Wiley teamed up to produce a series
of textbooks that deliver compelling and innovative teaching solutions to instructors and
superior learning experiences for students. Infused and informed by in-depth knowledge from
the creators of Microsoft products, and crafted by a publisher known worldwide for the ped-
agogical quality of its products, these textbooks maximize skills transfer in minimum time.
Students are challenged to reach their potential by using their new technical skills as highly
productive members of the workforce.
Because this knowledge base comes directly from Microsoft, creator of the Microsoft Certified
IT Professional (MCITP), Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist (MCTS), and Microsoft
Certified Professional (MCP) exams (https://www.microsoft.com/learning), you are sure to
receive the topical coverage that is most relevant to students’ personal and professional success.
Microsoft’s direct participation not only assures you that MOAC textbook content is accurate
and current; it also means that students will receive the best instruction possible to enable
their success on certification exams and in the workplace.
■■ The Microsoft Official Academic Course Program
The Microsoft Official Academic Course series is a complete program for instructors and insti-
tutions to prepare and deliver great courses on Microsoft software technologies. With MOAC,
we recognize that, because of the rapid pace of change in the technology and curriculum devel-
oped by Microsoft, there is an ongoing set of needs beyond classroom instruction tools for an
instructor to be ready to teach the course. The MOAC program endeavors to provide solutions
for all these needs in a systematic manner in order to ensure a successful and rewarding course
experience for both instructor and student—technical and curriculum training for instructor
readiness with new software releases; the software itself for student use at home for building
hands-on skills, assessment, and validation of skill development; and a great set of tools for
delivering instruction in the classroom and lab. All are important to the smooth delivery of an
interesting course on Microsoft software, and all are provided with the MOAC program. We
think about the model below as a gauge for ensuring that we completely support you in your
goal of teaching a great course. As you evaluate your instructional materials options, you may
wish to use the model for comparison purposes with available products.

, Illustrated Book Tour
■■ Pedagogical Features
The MOAC textbook for Networking Fundamentals is designed to cover all the learning
objectives for that MTA exam 98-366, which is referred to as its “objective domain.” The
Microsoft Technology Associate (MTA) exam objectives are highlighted throughout the
textbook. Many pedagogical features have been developed specifically for Microsoft Official
Academic Course programs.
Presenting the extensive procedural information and technical concepts woven throughout the
textbook raises challenges for the student and instructor alike. The Illustrated Book Tour that
follows provides a guide to the rich features contributing to Microsoft Official Academic Course
program’s pedagogical plan. Following is a list of key features in each lesson designed to pre-
pare students for success as they continue in their IT education, on the certification exams,
and in the workplace:
• Each lesson begins with an Objective Domain Matrix. More than a standard list of
learning objectives, the matrix correlates each software skill covered in the lesson to the
specific exam objective domain.
• Concise and frequent Step-by-Step instructions teach students new features and provide
an opportunity for hands-on practice. Numbered steps give detailed, step-by-step
instructions to help students learn software skills.
• Illustrations: Screen images provide visual feedback as students work through the
exercises. The images reinforce key concepts, provide visual clues about the steps, and
allow students to check their progress.
• Key Terms: Important technical vocabulary is listed with definitions at the beginning of
the lesson. When these terms are used later in the lesson, they appear in bold italic type
and are defined. The Glossary contains all of the key terms and their definitions.
• Engaging point-of-use Reader Aids, located throughout the lessons, tell students why
this topic is relevant (The Bottom Line), provide students with helpful hints (Take Note).
Reader Aids also provide additional relevant or background information that adds value
to the lesson.
• Certification Ready features throughout the text signal students where a specific
certification objective is covered. They provide students with a chance to check their
understanding of that particular MTA objective and, if necessary, review the section of
the lesson where it is covered. MOAC offers complete preparation for MTA certification.
• End-of-Lesson Questions: The Knowledge Assessment section provides a variety of
multiple-choice, true-false, matching, and fill-in-the-blank questions.
• End-of-Lesson Exercises: Business case scenarios and Workplace Ready exercises are
projects that test students’ ability to apply what they’ve learned in the lesson.
