Title: Assignment 2 - OSI Model Explanation
Course: KVCC CPT128 > Section: Assignments

Your Assignment for this week is to explain the complete OSI Model (All seven Layers).

1.      As part of your answer you should explain the levels and their components.

2.      What protocols are found at each level?

3.      What devices are part of each layer?

4.      Once you answer the above you should then explain my sending you an email in relation to how this will flow through the layers.

Once you have this written up I would like you to give your description to another person and have them read it. I want you to take their feedback and questions and then summarize that as part of the assignment. Then once this is done make any revisions if necessary and document these changes.

At this point you should have a solid summary of the entire OSI model and how it functions. The final step is to take and compress all of this knowledge down into a concise statement about each layer. For each of the seven layers I want you to write no more than a two-word description of what each layers do. Think of this as the Twitter version of the OSI model.

Once this is done the final step will be to select an image that represents each layer to you as an individual. You can use Google images or draw your own if you like. These images can be anything that will help you remember the layers. I understand this will seem like an unusual request however studies have shown that doing this operation increases knowledge retention and is the foundation for concepts such as memory palaces.

An example could be the network layer deals with routing so I will use a picture of a map to represent this.
