How to Access the Internet Notes:

The lecture notes will be posted on the internet weekly. You can access the web site for class notes by following one of the procedures listed below:

After turning on the computer, select NETSCAPE or INTERNET EXPLORER on the desktop.

Printing the Lecture Notes:

It is the student's responsibility to print the lecture notes. You may print the lecture notes at home, at work or in one of the classrooms (Lupton 165, 190 or 194). These rooms are usually less busy between 5:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. If the room is locked during those hours, go to Room 163 ask the lab assistant to open the room for you. Make sure that the room where the printer is located is also open.

You can print your lecture notes and email messages by clicking on FILE on the upper left hand side of the BROWSER WINDOW, then click on PRINT. Then read the PRINT dialog box that will appear on the screen. Click on OK. This will start the printing process.

How to Access Your YAHOO EMAIL:

Check your email frequently. Email is used for the purpose of distributing questions on each topic, to remind you certain things such as Review for a TEST, list of Term Paper Topics, last minute emergency notification such as school closing, class cancellation, etc. I will also notify you by email whenever the new lecture notes are posted on the internet. Please check your email frequently. You can access your email at home, at work or in the College. Here is the procedure for checking your email.
