1/18/09 Announcement:

Two memos have recently been sent out by Professor Auerbach. One of them regards reminders and new policies for teachers and the other is a letter regarding the Freshman English attendance policies for students (with a place for them to sign). If you didnt recieve the email with these two attachments (or misplaced it) there is a link to both memos on the sidebar.

1/12/09 Announcement:

Adobe has recently released a new version of Contribute, Adobe Contribute CS4.   We do have licenses to the new version, but you only need it if you're running Windows Vista, or if you use Apple/Macintosh computers. Otherwise, you can use an earlier version of the software, Macromedia Contribute, which we have on CD.  There’s no noticeable difference between the various versions of Contribute.  Let Laurie know if you need a license.

Welcome to the wiki created to help make your experience working with the Contribute program alittle bit easier or at least, alittle less stressful.  We have created a few pages where you can vent your frustrations, request assistance, write suggestions, etc...  Basically, we are asking you to read, write and add anything you find relevant to using the Contribute program.  To "contribute" to this site, simply hit the "edit" button and start typing, then hit the "save" button when you're done.

You will find that editing this site is similar to editing your course site. Also, the system has safeguards that make it possible for anything you do to be undone—so don’t worry about mistakenly messing something up. This is a utilitarian site, and your friendly staff will devote more time to keeping it organized than to making it visually pleasing, but please do feel free to do some interior decorating!
