Replacement Plan 1.0 Professional Development 2010-2011
Replacement Plan Wiki A checklist & wiki are available to help guide you through new features • http://replacementplan.hcpss.wikispaces.net/teacherlaptop
General Laptop Information • Teachers have administrative rights • Teachers should do software updates • Teachers can load approved and licensed software applications • Software Approval Process (SAP): http://doc.hcpss.org:8080/docushare/dsweb/View/Collection-20838
General Care • Store in appropriate location • Avoid heat/cold • Keep the laptop in a secure location • Avoid completely draining the battery • Avoid using harsh solvents or ammonia • Wipe screen and keys with a soft anti-static cloth • Note: please do not use the Magic Eraser because it can mar the finish on the laptop.
Legacy Computers • Connect to the Internet with server access (i.e., teacher hand-in/hand-out folders or campus folder) • Have the same software that they had before the replacement plan (WILL NOT have new Office) • Can print
Changes to Teacher Login • All staff and student accounts will use their Network Account • The Network Account has been referred to as your ASPEN at home login • High schools and administrators are currently using the Network Account This is the first step in a move toward a single sign-on.
Active Directory HCPSS is moving toward an Active Directory system meaning that one username and password can log the user into many different systems. DEStreaming www.destreaming.com Wikispaces hcpss.wikispaces.net Inroads • After RP your username and password will give you access to: • Your assigned teacher laptop (Mac OS) • Your assigned teacher laptop (Windows OS) • Lab & building computers on the network • Remote Access (https://ra.hcpss.org) (to use Aspen from home) Aspen https://aspen.hcpss/org Document Repository First Class /CLC Intranet http://login.hcpss.org Over time additional functions will be added to AD. Today everything listed above requires individual login credentials.
Changes to Student Login • High School: • Login remains the same • Middle School: • Login remains the same (except for a few duplicates in names from each school) • Elementary School: • Login will be similar to the current login. The new login will add 2 letters to make all ES student logins unique across the school system • i.e. bw12s001 (bw=Bryant Woods)
Login Protocols • Every staff member has a Network Account (this includes substitutes) • Teacher login help- contact x7004 • Student login help- contact x1553
Home Directory Folder House = Local • Desktop items and items in the Home Directory are only available on the local machine • To access files from other computers when logged on to the network, the files must be placed in a network folder (Network Home, Campus, Hand In/Out)
Network Folders • There are three types of folders on the server that you can access when logged on to the network : • Network Home • Campus • Hand In/Out • Staff have full control over all of the folders (can view, edit, add, delete files and folders) • Students can view files and can edit their own files in the Hand-In folder • Hand-In/Hand-Out folders do not count toward teachers storage allocation
Network Folders • Students are allocated 1 GB of server space • Teachers are allocated 5 GB of server space KB < MB < GB < TB
Network Home Folder • All teachers have a folder on the server called “network home” and is represented by their login name kwisniewski
Campus Folder The CAMPUS folder is shared server space that can be accessed by any teacher on the instructional network
Backing Up Files • In the event of malfunction, laptops will be re-imaged • You are responsible for backing up instructional files on a regular basis • Two methods: • 1) REQUIRED: Save to server • 2) OPTIONAL: Save to external source • Burn to CD/DVD • Copy to an external hard drive • USB device (not as your primary back-up)
Change Password – Preferred Method (Mac) • You can change your password by going to the system preferences - Accounts • After changing your pw: • Logout and login with new password while connected to the network (Ethernet cable plugged into the wall jack) so you can login from home • If you have Windows installed: • Username and password are the same for each OS • You need to logout and login with new password while connected to the network Note: Your login Remote/Home Aspen password is the same as your Mac and Windows login password. Changing the password for one will change it for all of these. Aspen from school is separate from this.
OS 10.6: Dock Teacher Dock Network Campus The docks have been “locked” to prevent deletion of the server folders. Teachers may add any application and delete the applications added. Student Dock A dock spotlight under an application icon shows it’s open. Click and hold on an icon in the dock to Quit. Hand In & Hand Out
Preview with Quick Look You can view almost any file except folders from the Desktop or a Finder window by clicking once on the icon(s) and then press the space bar. Press the space bar again to escape. Photocourtesy of http://www.apple.com/findouthow/mac/#quicklook2
OS 10.6: Printing • Type printer name on the Address line* • Add .inst.hcpss.org to the end of the address line if the printer is on the Instructional Network • Add .hcpss.org to end of the address line if the printer is on the Administrative Network (i.e.: an OCE printer) • You may type a recognizable or “friendly” name on the Name line • You may type the room number or name on the Location line New example IP: ELMMDIAPRHP001 *Printer list can be obtained from the library media specialist or from the printer if it is labeled with the name (not the IP number) be sure to add .inst.hcpss.org to the name.
