TARGET<Verification of signed Computer/Technology Policy

[Valerie Cascanet <cascanet@ALDUS.NORTHNET.ORG>]

Good morning!

Our district has an approved computer/technology policy which was sent
home for parent and student signatures.  The signed policies are now being
returned to the school office.

Question(s) :  What next?  Where should the policies be filed, seperately
in personal files or grouped together in one stack?

What is the most efficient way for a teacher to verify all students
in his class requiring computer use  have a signed policy on file?

For library use, how do we know if a student has a signed policy when he
walks through our doors?  Do we check each student every time they come
in?As you realize, this would take a lot of time.

Our thought:  We use I-Clas on a Novell network.  Only add students to
our Library Class as users when the policy is returned.  Any students not
returning their policies have no menu item choices if they log in.  What
we had to do was delete all existing library classes and start over again.
What a time consuming project, we made Classes A, B, C, D, etc. and
inserted students whos last name began with A in Class A, B in Class B and
so on.  But in the meantime, before we get this project finished, some
students are not in classes who have a turned in policy until we are
finished.   Does this sound like a lot of work?  Extra work for the
library to do?     Any thoughts, suggestions, or tried procedures are
welcomed.


Thank you.
 Valerie
