Back to School Night

Hello Parents,

It was a pleasure meeting all of you last night. If you are reading this then you are at my blog for the mac lab that I run here at Santa Rosa Academy. The purpose of this blog is to keep you and your student up to date with projects worked on in class as well as homework assignments. Lately, we have been starting class off with a warm up that usually includes using technology in a creative and innovative way. The reasoning behind this is to be in compliance with iste's National Education Technology Standards or (NETS), which I will have a link to in the right side bar of this page labeled (NETS). Also, a couple concerns were answered that I will readdress right now. For starters, if you are still having trouble emailing and are unable to print at home from your student's computer, then I suggested purchasing a flash drive which allows students to save files, and then, transfer to another computer. This purchase will be a worthwhile expense, but by no means is required for this particular class. With concerns for printing, this will be handled on an individual basis. First you need to record what kind of printer you have and have your student talk to Mr. Sanchez who will assist in the installation of the necessary printer driver for your MacBook. I wish you a good day.
