Here's a real-life riddle for you. How do you know when your school system's Internet filtering might be just a little bit out of control? When you can't complete your Internet Safety Training Certification through i-Safe because the firewall and/or proxy filter won't let you into the live session, and the anti-virus system won't let you download Chapter 6 of the asynchronous session because it's too large a compressed file (or too compressed or something). And I called our network guy several hours in advance to let him know what I'd be doing and which port needed to be open, etc. He said it appeared to him to be working. Oh, well good for him. Sorry--It actually wasn't funny at all. Grrrr. (This is not to mention the simultaneous tech problems for the teacher who needed to be videotaped doing a lesson with the SmartBoard. While I was trying to get online with my class, she was unable to get the video cameras off-pause or to log on to the laptop computer. So, we have to re-do her lesson tomorrow.) Oh well, tomorrow's another day. And that's my greatest fear! Deb Waugh Librarian/Instructional Technologist The Emmett G.
