  • Browser Tip

    Tuesday’s Technology Tip
    (Little bits of information to hopefully make your computing life easier)

    The web browser Firefox is installed on all building computers. Since the WITS programmers use Firefox when they work, you may find some things in WITS behave better. To find Firefox on the Dells, open the HeimM Staff Shortcuts folder on the desktop (the shortcut is titled Mozilla Firefox). On the Macs, the shortcut is in the Dock.

  • SMART Part 2

    I attended a SMART Master’s Training day here in Buffalo with a bunch of Williamsville people, inlcuding 4 Heim teachers who have SMARTBoards full-time in their classrooms. The day was AWESOME! I picked up lots of tips & tricks on using the boards.

    The mix of people was cool – there were 4 from Oregon who came to the training in here in Buffalo (not something you would expect…) We had a great time learning and sharing together.

    Looking forward to moving forward with our 5 year plan to install projectors/SMARTBoards in every classroom!
