EASTERN NETWORK

Item 1: Benefits of logging in to you and your students
GOAL: All staff and all students will login everytime they use a computer

• username = "RICHTM1210" pass = whatever you want ... NOT CONNECTED TO attendance / grades ... reset password ANYTIME by hitting ctrl+alt+delete on Windows 2000 or XP
• home drive saving for both staff and students (lost passwords can be reset in building by Steve Lopez, Arnett, Lenoir, S. Pastuszka, Richter)
• saving to Public Drive = sure and sometimes instant loss of data
• creating an "electronic drop box" in the L: Drive
  • create a new folder in the L: Drive
  • right click>properties on the folder
  • choose security tab > click on all network users account and select the Write privileges box
• logging in also maps you to G: Drive, allowing you to access Network version of GradeQuick (many teachers will use Network version to have system automatically enter student data initially and then transfer files to local version to manage drop / adds through the term
  • Richter can add you / change your GQ username very easily

GROUPWISE

Item 1: Benefits of using
GOAL: All staff will regularly check their Groupwise

• username = "RICHTM1210" | password = pass1234 (last 4 digits of SS) ... sometimes password also equals "changeme" ...
• password IS NOT connected to your attendance / grading
• using your calendar > send yourself an appointment to try it out ...
• I do not beleive that you can automatically forward Groupwise mail to another address (but you probably can do the opposite)

username = "michaelrichter" password = 1234 (last four of SS#)

Manage Account

Item 1: Edit your profile / search others

Item 2: Classifieds Section ... free to members for at least the rest of the school year

Teacher Links

Groupwise Local | Groupwise Remote | Squirrel Mail

Attendance Local | Web Grading Local | Web Grading Remote

Student Information Local | KALPA

Webserver Local | LSEA | Weekly Staff Bulletin *new*

(webserver for looking up any student/teacher schedule, getting contact info, tracking relationships)

Helpful Hints ...

Groupwise, attendance, grading and student information all use the same username (first 5 digits of your lastname followed by the first digit of your firstname, followed by month and day of your birthday)

BUT ... groupwise has a different password until you set them equal (if you want to)

If you make a mistake putting your password into attendance 3 times within ~ 45 days ... your account will be locked out ... you must call 325-6060 to have your account unlocked and password reset to your username.

KALPA info:

District Login: 33020
Personal login: Usually first initial and last name (See supervisor)
Password: Last 4 digits of your social security number

LSEA and webserver use same usernames (full first name followed by full last name with no spaces)
