TMS Blended Learning & Tech Update
October 3, 2014
Please Let Me Know About Any Students That Do Not Have Laptops
We can make students day users until we can get their parents in for a rollout session. Those students will have to check the computer out at the beginning of the day and check it back in at the end of the day. Do not send the students to me until I call for them specifically, just send me their names.
Please take 2 minutes to complete this Open Class Survey. It will help me know what PD we need at ERPD on Wednesday, October 15th.

Mac FAQs
This is the link for the troubleshooting guide I sent you in an email. You can share it with your students.
Troubleshooting Requests
When sending a student to Mrs. Justice or myself with computer problems, please send a paper troubleshooting request with students or complete this Google Form. It makes it easier to work on the problem and tells Mrs. Justice and/or me that their teacher knows where they are. Thanks for your help with this.
