The Units (also called Chapters) were originally created in Microsoft Power Point for the purpose of in-class presentations. However, they have been converted into "html" pages for publication to the web. This allows students to study class information on their own time - wherever they have access to the Internet. These presentations may also be used in conjunction with the appropriate text in distance learning applications.

Instructions:

  • From the Professional Page - choose your class, and use the drop-down menu to locate the "Units" (or "OSF" information) for that class. Select the specific Unit by clicking on it, then click the "GO" button.
  • Each Unit is designed to come up in a new browser window that can be manipulated without losing your place at the Professional Page.
  • You can minimize, maximize, and drag the new window. When finished, you can close the window by clicking on the "x" in the top right corner of the window. When the window closes, you should once again be looking at the Professional Page, and be able to make your next selection.
  • There are two ways to view each Unit. The first is to use the outline of the various pages to be presented in the Unit. By clicking on a specific heading, your browser will jump to that page and display all information from that page.
  • However, to view in the Power Point format, click on the "Slide Show" button at the bottom right hand of the window. This will allow the Unit to take over your entire screen. Now you must click the mouse to move ahead through the presentation. The slide show feature allows you to quiz yourself as you go, because only certain information is presented with each click of the mouse. To get out of the slide show, hit the "Esc" button on your keyboard, or right click your mouse and select "End Show."
  • This will return you to the initial version of the Unit with the outline view. To return to the Professional Page simply close this window by clicking on the "x" at the top right corner of the browser window.
