CURRENT ANNOUNCEMENTS

August 26, 2008

Students are urged to use the Power-point slides posted on the course web site as a guide for taking notes during the lecture. They are skeletal outlines and are not intended as a substitute for taking notes.

The directions that follow allow you to fit more than one slide on a sheet of paper:

- - On website choose Topical Outlines

-- select notes you wish --

- - Once they appear in browser, click

o o File

o o Edit with Microsoft PowerPoint (PP) for Windows

-- must have PP installed on computer --

-

- - Once the notes have come up in PP

o o Select File

o o Print

--Now you need to change the category, “Print what:” to “handouts”, and then directly to the right you can adjust how many slides fit you want to appear on each page (recommendation: three per page automatically gives lines for taking notes next to the relevant slide) --

----------------------

- - If you wish to save the slides to your hard drive/or disk, go to “Save As”

- - You’ll have to go through the process of canceling the Network Password again.

- - ALSO: make sure you change the “Save As Type” from “Web Page” to the version of PowerPoint that is on your computer.
