All Staff – Please see email below from Tim W. regarding printing Mastery Manager in chrome browser
We have found an issue that has developed printing Mastery Manager assessments. To be clear, it appears that something may have changed in the Chrome browser that making printing pdfs default to having the “fit to page” checked (whereas previously this did not seem to be the case).
The fix appears to be simple: please make sure when the printing window comes up when printing a Mastery Manager assessment, the “FIT TO PAGE” box is not checked.
Please UNCLICK the fit to page box.
Fraction Nation
We are still discussing the viability of Fraction Nation vs. IXL and will keep members updated as to our next steps.
