415 – Bios

By candy - Last updated: Friday, November 20, 2009

I haven’t done the quiz yet, but I have made the biographies available to all, if you want to download for later reading. Log in to the course, choose Assignments, and then instead of choosing a specific assignment – look at the row of tabs and select the tab called “Published”. The default display is [...]

415 – Asst3

By candy - Last updated: Wednesday, November 18, 2009

I am beginning to return the hard copy to your mail folders, but this will lag behind my returning comments and grades in elearning,since I do the eLearning thing first and then return hard copy in batches. So, if you see your grade and comment sheet and are wondering what the cataloguing and coding issues [...]

415 – Wednesday taping

By candy - Last updated: Tuesday, November 3, 2009

I am going to audiotape Wednesday’s class and put it on the Web. You can follow along if you have the PPT files (a bit of the end of the one we were at last week, and then the two-to-a-page from this week), or on the Web (or both). I will still give this class [...]

415 – Cataloger’s Desktop

By candy - Last updated: Monday, November 2, 2009

The CDS has made changes to how the Cataloger’s Desktop is accessed.
Logging in for the first time, users need to use their Simmons email as login, e.g. watkins@simmons.edu, and then the word catalog as the password. After that, users can set up their own password and login which will enable them to establish preferences, saved [...]

415 – next PPT

By candy - Last updated: Monday, November 2, 2009

Is in elearning. I did it 6-to-a-page and 2-to-a-page, the latter because a lot of the slides are screen caps from Classification Web, and hard to see in very small. Remember, no class on Friday, and no Wednesday class NEXT week.
