Custom Content
Remember that we can upload a file, pdf, or video to the Custom Content portion of Atomic Learning.  You may want to make a video available to students or parents.  Students and parents can log into AL and access the video any time.  Teachers may have instructional videos or other materials that they’d like to share with fellow teachers. Uploading these to AL will allow easy access any time, anywhere.
Just send me the file, pdf, or video link and I can upload these to our Custom Content.  Custom Content is placed directly into the Tutorials applications, or can be accessed from the My Training tab.

Go to Start>Programs>Accessories>Entertainment>FlipShare

2. Missing Features When You Log In?
If your H Drive or other feature is not functioning properly, such as SIS, the first thing you should do is to log out and log back in.  If this does not fix the issue, ask your neighbor if they are having the same problems.  This may determine if it is a network issue that we need to take care of.  Changes are that, if it is a network problem, the technology department is already aware and working to fix the problem.  You should contact your building tech person if your troubleshooting does not get you up and running.

1. Trouble Opening PDF files
Occasionally you may get an error or ‘Stopped’ message when trying to open a PDF file.  When this happens, hold down the Shift key and click on the Refresh icon.  This will open your PDF.
2. Smart Notebook
Many teachers use Smart Notebook and Smart Notebook lessons that have already been created.  According to Smart Technologies, we are not legally able to use Smart Notebook on stand alone computers unless those computers are located in a room where there are already Smart products, such as a Smart Board.  In the future you will not have the option to use Smart Notebook files, so here are some suggestions for alternatives.

• express.smarttech.com Open to everyone- With SMART Notebook Express, anyone, anywhere can open and interact with SMART Notebook software files. There’s no charge, no software to download and no log in required. All you need is Internet access. This is a BETA site.
• https://www.eicommunity.com/Page/search-resources.aspx Find (Mobi) Workspace Lessons and Galleries, ExamView® Tests, images, Microsoft Word documents, PowerPoint® presentations, and more.  You have to register and create a free account to access this site.

Report Spam:
A large percentage of all junk mail you get is because you gave your email address to somebody, somehow, somewhere.
You should ‘Report Spam’ when you receive junk mail in your school inbox.  This type of email does not ask for any personal information.  You should not open spam mail just to be on the safe side.  Select the spam email and click on Report Spam.  Go to http://www.ftc.gov/spam/ for more information.

Report Phishing:
Phishing is the criminally fraudulent process of attempting to acquire sensitive information such as usernames, passwords and credit card details by masquerading as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication. (Wikipedia) Links or attachments to this type of email should never be opened.  When you open the phishing email you should go to the drop down arrow to ‘report phishing’ (located next to the Reply button). For more information on phishing, go to http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/pubs/consumer/alerts/alt127.shtm.

1. Viewing Student Home Folders:
   To view student Home folders and files, go to www.wolves.k12.mo.us/view-student-homes. You will be asked to type in your username/password.  Teachers may need to view student work for review, grading or to give feedback and many teachers find this useful when viewing student work off campus.

1. Accessing websites on student computers:
   Teachers and students have different permissions, so some sites that you can view on your computer may be blocked for students.  If you plan your lesson far enough in advance, we may be able to unblock a site that you want to use with students.  Sites are blocked for students for different reasons. If you feel that a site you are trying to use for instructional and educational purposes should be unblocked, then copy the link and email it to Chris Dillon, cdillon@wolves.k12.mo.us.

We are switching to a new Help Desk to replace the old antiquated Work Order System. Look for information coming soon from your building tech.
