Trying to log in to school server using terminal on mac.

Hi everyone I am a complete beginner and already confused. the instructor has step by step directions for students on PC to download putty and do it that way. He neglects mac unfortunately. I attached the documents that instructs students how to do it. maybe you could read it and guide me? Iv done research myself but to no avail. he doesnt supply any info on the server name besides an IP address.

I asked my instructor and he told me to just look it up myself. have been doing it for a while and I still dont understand. Can anyone offer any suggestions it will be much appreciated.

Thanks
