| Question:
How do I get to my files from home? |
Answer:
First, you need to contact your Technology Coordinator for a program that
you need to load onto your computer at home. Once you install the
program, you need to get to the Citrix link on the Teacher Resource
Page. Click on the link that looks like this: 
When you click on the link, you should be able to
log into the server at school. You should use your username and
password that you use to log onto the computer at school. |

| Question:
Windows Media player – don’t really know how to use it? I would like to just find a good radio station to play as
background music. Also, when
I put in a music CD to play, Media player comes up with the list of songs
but I don’t know how to get it to play.

Answer:
My suggestion would be to just bring in a radio for background
music. Having a radio station
playing from the computer ties up a lot of bandwidth and it will also
cause your computer to run MUCH slower.
There should be a
play button on the Media player, much like the play button on the regular
CD player on your computer. Clicking
on that should make it play.

| Question: Do I
still need the printshop disks? |
| Answer: You
don’t need them to run the program, but they do have some extra graphics
on them that are not on your computer.
The second CD has graphics on it and the third CD has photos on it. |

Properties. Click on the
