Independent+Study

Livebinders is an online notebook just like a binder that you would keep things in. It can hold documents, videos, web links and any other digital content. You will be using a livebinder filled with tutorials on how to do anything on your Mac.

=Please Note:= Our class will NOT meet on Wed. night. I have an independent study activity for you to do on your own. You have each decided on an area of interest that you are going to pursue for your project. That may be setting up and organizing emails, importing and organizing photos, setting up your computer with your system preferences, finding out about iTunes and organizing music are examples. You may just want time to explore and become more familiar with your Mac. I have prepared a LIvebinder of resources/tutorials to guide your explorations. You will use these resources and then begin your work on applying them. If you have any questions you may email me and I will try to assist you. I will be available all evening on Wed. if you need assistance. After your exploration I would like you to post a brief description of what you worked on and learned in the discussion forum. Or, post questions if you are looking for more information. Feel free to respond to others postings and offer comments or assistance. Posting directions are on the **independent study** page. The resources are in a Livebinder at: [] . Click on this address or copy it into the address bar on your computer. The resources are also listed on the **independent study** page in this wiki. Good luck. I will wait to hear about your work.

To post your comments and questions on your independent work scroll down to the bottom of this page to the discussion area. Place your cursor in the box next to Discuss and type in your name then type your text and hit post. I you want to reply to any other posts click in the reply box after their post and reply to them.
