Tech Bundle Information

Directions for Creating a Google Account (in order to reserve computer resources on Google Calendar)

Accessing the X and Y drives from home (or the library, coffee shop etc.)

Simply put the following address in your browser http://files.pps.k12.or.us/  and the page will open with directions and a link to the X and Y drives. The link is in the upper right hand corner of the page and it says "Files Login". You will be asked to enter your name and password. It works a little differently, but you'll be given access to the same folders that you have access to on the network at school.

A Note From Ning:  Thousands of educators like you are enjoying Ning Mini for free thanks to Pearson and their sponsorship of education networks across North America.

Pearson and Ning are still accepting applications! Ning Network Creators can continue to apply, and if approved, enjoy a free Ning Mini Network for their classes, schools and other K-12 education needs. If you have any friends or colleagues who are looking to expand their education practices online, or if you have new classes or programs that could benefit from a Ning Network, create your site and apply to get a Ning Mini subscription for free!*

Discovery Education  

Is a great (and underutilized) resource that the district has purchased.  I've attached 3 documents for this program.  The Roosevelt Pass code for Discovery ED is posted in the Office.  This is the code you use to create a new account.   If you would like help getting started or if you need help setting this up for your classes,  please let me know.  Here is the link to the complete user guide:

Discovery Ed - 50 Ways to Integrate It Into Your Classroom

It is important to note that if you are using a Mac to watch videos on Discovery Ed, you will have to make a one time change to the "Stream Type" preference in the pull down window under the video viewer: click on stream type and select "Quicktime" as your player.  Do the same if you download videos.
