>Lab Aide Meeting-Minutes
>November 13, 2006
>
>1) Sheri Tarter, Basic Skills Math Specialist, spoke and demonstrated the
>Pearson SuccessNet web site for the lab aides. This website was included
>with the new math textbook series distributed last year. The site is very
>comprehensive. Teacher must obtain training before they gain access to the
>site. Lab aides should talk about access with the Basic Skills teacher from
>their school site. There are a limited amount of accounts. There are
>possible issues with the website. There are plug-ins necessary to drive the
>site. Flash and Shockwave are major plug-ins that need to be updated.
>ActiveX wants to install itself on Windows machines when a PC connects with
>the site. If a computer has Deep Freeze or Foolproof on it, it will be
>necessary to unlock or unfreeze the computer to allow this install.
>Otherwise, ActiveX will need to be installed each time the site is visited.
>2) Plug-ins: Check out the Intranet website, intra/webtools , created by
>Nathan Myers. It reads your computers plug-ins and reports back to you what
>recommendations are needed. Be sure to read the warnings so you don’t create
>problems for yourself. The readings made by webtools are not 100% accurate.
>Sometimes it misreads your computer, but it makes a good starting point for
>troubleshooting a browser. By the way, plug-ins can be browser specific.
>That is, it may require an install of a plug-in in each browser you use,
>(ex: Internet Explorer and Firefox).
>3) The next lad aide meeting is Tuesday, January 23, 2007. 9-11 am @
>Franklin East. Franklin East is just north of Mesa High School. Park on the
>west side of the school or on 8th Ave.
