Learning Segment : Advanced Features

Summary:

This learning segment provides an overview on how to use the control variables and built-in functions of CLISTs.

Objectives:

• Identify data types Locate system information Manage strings Use TSO EDIT in a CLIST Manage files Use modular CLISTS Identify errors

Topics:

• Control Variables and Built-In Functions TSO EDIT Processing Files Modularizing Error Routines

Features:

• A Course Topics list contains active hyperlinks, permitting quick access to specific topics.
• Find-A-Word allows learners to look up an unfamiliar term in the Glossary, on the Web, or in a dictionary. In addition, it lets them find other occurrences of the term in the same course.
• Search text enables learners to rapidly search all text within a course to easily retrieve information required.
• Courses challenge the learner with a variety of question formats, including multi-step simulations, true/false, multiple choice, and fill-in-the-blank.
• A skill assessment generates a customized learning path based on the results of a pre-test. A glossary provides a reference for definitions of unfamiliar terms.
• Bookmarking tracks the learner's progress in a course.
