{{FM|Audience=MAC}}

=====Keep your files in some kind of a structured order is very important.=====

Your hard drive is like a filing cabinet. If you think of it this way, it will be easier to understand. Now we all know that a filing cabinet is a system in which things are put away in an orderly fashion so that you can find them when you need them. Well, your hard drive is exactly the same. A filing cabinet has dividers and folders within/or behind those dividers.

Draft:Add a content topic to a Brightspace course

NSchmitt10: /* Specific Instructions for Adding New Topics */

{{TOC_Float_Right}}
==About this article==
This article describes the general process for creating content topics in a [[Desire2Learn]] (D2L) table of contents (TOC) and includes links to articles with more specific instructions. It is intended for '''instructors'''.

==What's a topic?==
In D2L, instructors provide students with access to course content by building a TOC composed of headings and links. The headings are called ''modules'' and the links are called ''topics''. While modules are used to organize the TOC, topics link to the actual course materials and activities that students need to access. The TOC supports a large number of topic types that fall into four basic categories:
*'''Files'''. Instructors can upload their own files to their D2L courses. This includes syllabi, presentations, outlines, assignments, or study guides created using such tools as Microsoft Word or PowerPoint. It includes scanned PDF files (e.g., readings), images, and audio/video files. It includes publisher-provided course cartridges containing files (e.g., handouts, slides).
*'''Documents'''. Instructors can use the Editor Tool to create and edit documents directly in D2L courses.
*'''Links'''. Instructors can add links to external web pages. Publisher-provided course cartridges often include links to various websites that are added to the TOC as topics.
*'''Activities'''. Instructors can link to other components of their D2L course (e.g., quizzes, surveys, discussion topics, dropboxes) allowing students to navigate to those activities directly from the TOC.

==General instructions for adding topics==
There are several ways to add topics to a module or sub-module. The following is an overview. More detailed instructions are included in the articles listed at the bottom of this page. For all instructions below, first navigate to a D2L course and select '''Content''' from the '''Materials''' menu. This will take you to the Content Tool. Then, select the module or sub-module to which the topic is to be added from the sidebar region.
[[File:D2L10-1 topics new.jpg|right|frame|Fig 1. Adding topics using the New menu]]
[[File:D2L10-1 topics drag.jpg|right|frame|Fig 2. Uploading files via drag and drop]]
===Adding files as topics===
There are three basic methods for adding files as topics in a TOC:
*Select '''Upload Files''' from the '''New''' menu in the content region (Figure 1) and find the file on your device.
*Drag and drop files from your device onto the corresponding rectangular area on the content region (Figure 2).
*Link to files that have already been uploaded to the course by selecting '''Add Course File''' from the '''New''' menu in the content region (Figure 1).
===Adding documents as topics===
The Editor Tool can be used to create documents directly in a D2L course by selecting '''New Document''' from the '''New''' menu in the content region (Figure 1).
===Adding links as topics===
Links to external web pages can be added by selecting '''New Link''' from the '''New''' menu in the content region (Figure 1).
===Adding D2L activities as topics===
Links can be added to existing D2L activities or several new activities can be created directly from the TOC:
*Topics can be created by linking to existing D2L activities (i.e., quizzes, discussions) by selecting the corresponding activity from the '''Add Activities''' menu (Figure 3).
*New dropbox, discussion, and quiz activities can be created directly from the Content Tool and listed as topics by selecting '''New Dropbox''', '''New Discussion''', or '''New Quiz''' from the '''New''' menu (Figure 1).
[[File:D2L10-1 topics activites.jpg|right|frame|Fig 3. Adding topics using the Add Activities menu]]

==Additional details==
*Unlike modules, topics cannot be nested underneath other topics.
*In order to add a topic, you must [[Adding_a_content_module_to_a_D2L_course|have at least one module]]. Every topic needs to be a child of a parent module.
*When you upload a file, the topic title will default to the name of the file. This title can be changed without affecting the name of the uploaded file.
*By default, new topics are set to published mode and access is unrestricted. You can control access by switching to draft mode or by [[Restricting content access in D2L|setting restrictions]] at the topic-level (e.g., if you don't want students to see a topic until after a certain point in the course).
*If you plan to [[Integrating publisher-provided content into D2L|import a publisher-provided course pack]] or cartridge, it is not uncommon for that process to result in the addition of several new topics. For example, the publisher may include links to PowerPoint files. This import can be done at any time, even if you have already added topics yourself. Any new topics created by the installation of a course pack are typically added at the bottom of your existing table of contents. These topics can then be edited, moved, or deleted.
*If you are going to [[Merging D2L courses|merge course sections]], do not create topics until after the merge is complete and the new merged course appears on your class list.
*Be careful when [[Deleting D2L content modules and topics|deleting topics]]. Depending on how you delete the topic, you may also delete the uploaded file or D2L activity (e.g., dropbox, quiz) to which it is linked.

==Segment Descriptions==

#'''Why use Camptasia for capturing class content?''' Scott explains that Camtasia is useful for short vignettes of course content, show different drawing over the top of slides and images.
#'''Describe how you are using Camptasia in your courses.''' His content is very detail oriented and requires drawing on slides annotating concepts that even his book doesn't cover well.
#'''Do you have a requirement for viewing ?''' While Scott doesn't have a viewing requirement, he explains here how he explains the process for promoting repeated viewing of the content.
#'''Have the resources proven to be effective in your courses?''' Scott describes in this segment the different ways this allows him to pull content in from other classes and cover other concepts that might not otherwise would have been covered in this course.
#'''How did you prepared for creating these vignettes''' Scott provides some great advice here on the preparations one should be taking to ready yourself for the process of capturing with Camtaisa.
#'''What advice would you give faculty considering the use of Camntasia in their classes?''' Scott provides some sage advice in this segment for anyone who is considering capturing content for students. Key concepts include keeping your vignettes short for both you and your students, work with specialist to decide what capturing software you might want to go with, and focus on learning the basics and then start recording.
#''' Where are you going to take this project to next?''' Scott explains that the short vignettes helped him get the best balance on difficult topics so students would correctly realizing deeper they needed to dig into the details of the specific curriculum.
#'''What help did you receive as you implemented this activity?''' In this segment Scott talks about the different ways TLT helped him before, during, and after the recording process was completed.

==Good Practices==

*'''Time-on-task considerations.''' Keeping segments short and to-the-point. If you are tired recording these vignettes, your students will be tired watching them.
*'''Using annotations to illustrate a key concept.''' Scott used digital ink to annotate detailed concepts and dynamically illustrate more complex ideas that we could not otherwise have shown.

==Key Outcomes==

* Content developed was tailored to his exact needs.
* Allows him to provided additional content from other classes.
* Provided a way to deliver difficult content to students so they could start to learn how to balance the need to dig deeper into complex concepts and self-efficacy to move on when they master easier concepts.

Printing/Student Printing Policy

NSchmitt10: /* WSU Printing FAQ */

[[File:tree.jpg]]

Information Technology Services, working with the [[WSU]] Student Senate to continue enhancing the University's [http://www.winona.edu/green/index.asp Green Sustainability Initiative], has implemented new guidelines for student printing on the WSU campus.

During the 2009 - 2010 school year a minority of students (26) printed more than 3,000 pages. Printing at this level quickly uses up the budget for printing on campus. To promote conservation and contain rising printing costs, thus holding the student technology fee down, effective August 16th, 2010, each student will receive a balance of 1,000 black laser pages at the beginning of each semester.

==Check Your Balance==
Students can check their balance by visiting their [https://mywsu.winona.edu/it/Pages/ManageMyAccounts.aspx “Managing My WSU Accounts”]web page. The path is https://mywsu.winona.edu/it/Pages/ManageMyAccounts.aspx. Checking your balance is important so that you do not run out in the middle of an important print job - especially around finals. At the bottom of the page you will see '''"Campus Printing Summary"'''. There is a link in that section that will take you to your print summary.

==WSU Printing FAQ==

===When will the printing allotment be reset?===
One week prior to fall and spring semesters the print accounting will be reset.
*'''NOTE:''' The spring allotment carries over into the summer and will remain until your balance is renewed in the fall.

===If I print for a WSU club will it count toward the number of pages that are allowed?===
*Yes. If you print for a WSU club or organization your account will be affected by the number of pages that are printed. Clubs are allowed 1000 pages per semester of print pages at no cost to the club. The club advisor can allocate any portion of their club quota to a student or students. To do this the club advisor can send an email to [mailto:techsupport@winona.edu techsupport@winona.edu] with the following information: statement that you are the advisor for the club, the club name, and how many prints that you want to have added to a student account. The Technical Support Center will add the designated number of prints to the students print account.
*If a club needs more than 1000 pages of print, extra pages can be purchased at the Technical Support Center in Somsen 207. Cost for extra pages is 4 cents per page of print. The person purchasing these extra prints will need to provide the club billing account number for the charges.
NOTE: The club must be officially sponsored by Winona State University to qualify for 1000 pages per semester.

===If I don't use my 1000 page allotment each semester, can I get a refund or will the balance be added to next semester's balance?===
*No. At the beginning of each semester, the allotment starts over. Each student's account is replenished with the equivalent of 1000 black laser pages. No refunds are allowed for unused pages.

===If the printer jams, will I still be charged for prints?===
*Yes. When considering the appropriate allotment we factored in at least 200 pages for such incidents.

===Will my 1000 pages cover my color printing?===
*No. Your 1000 allotment only covers black laser pages. Color printing will continue to be pay per print. Please visit the [[Technical Support Center]] in Somsen 207 for more information about [http://www.winona.edu/it/printing.asp color printing].

===How will I be charged for duplex printing?===
*Duplex printing (printing on both sides of a single sheet of paper) will be counted as one page.

===Will I be able to print a document that has more pages than what I have left on my balance?===
*No. The document will not be printed at all of you do not have the sufficient number of pages left on your balance.

===How do I check my balance?===
*Students will be able to check their balance by visiting their [https://mywsu.winona.edu/it/Pages/ManageMyAccounts.aspx “Managing My WSU Accounts”]web page. The path is https://mywsu.winona.edu/it/Pages/ManageMyAccounts.aspx. Checking your balance is important so that you do not run out in the middle of an important print job - especially around finals. At the bottom of the page you will see '''"Campus Printing Summary"'''. There is a link in that section that will take you to your print summary.

===Will my printing balance be charged if I printed to a faculty or staff printer?===
*Yes. A student’s printing balance will be charged when printing to any WSU network printer. Please have your supervisor contact the Technical Support Center regarding this type of printing so that your account is not charged.

===Can I print more than 1000 pages?===
*Yes. However you will have to purchase additional prints at a cost of four cents per page in increments of 125 sheets. For example, five dollars will purchase an additional 125 pages.

===Where do I purchase additional pages?===
*Visit the Technical Support Center in Somsen 207 and use your purple pass to make purchases for additional prints. You will not be able to use credit cards, debit cards, checks or cash to purchase additional prints.

===If I purchase additional prints and do not use them can I get a refund?===
*No. There will be no refunds. Purchased prints will carry over between fall and spring semesters and between spring and summer semesters. Purchased prints will not be carried over between the summer and fall semesters. All accounts will be reset back to 1000 sheets for the fall semester.

===Can I share my printing account with another student?===
*No. You cannot share your printing account or transfer money to a different persons account.

===Student employees printing for a department or a University function:===
*We encourage departments on campus to have computers with “Desk Accounts” for use by student employees. These “Desk Accounts” will ensure that printing for work-related purposes will not count towards a student employee’s print quota. It is up to the supervisors of these employees to insure that this printing is not used for personal use. Supervisors can request a desk account by contacting the Technical Support Center (507.457.5240). “Desk accounts” are restricted to the location of the computer, therefore these accounts cannot be used on an individual students laptop. If it is necessary for student employees to use their own laptop for work related printing, we encourage the use of reimbursements similar to the club printing.

Draft:Getting the Most Out of Your Battery (Mac)

2013-08-02T19:38:16Z

NSchmitt10: /* Battery Conservation Tips */

The newer MacBook Pro has a built-in battery.

==Using Your Battery==

When the external power adapter is not connected, your computer draws power from its battery. The length of time that you can run your MacBook depends on what you are doing on your Mac. Turning off features such as wireless technology can help conserve battery charge.

You can determine the charge left in your battery by looking at the battery level indicator lights on the left side of your MacBook. Press the button next to the lights, and the lights glow briefly to show how much charge is left in the battery.

:::[[File:Battery_Indicator.png|left|200px]]

'''Important:''' If only one indicator light is on, very little charge is left. If no lights are visible, the battery is completely drained and the computer will not start up unless the power adapter is connected. Plug in the power adapter to let the battery recharge. If your battery runs low while you are working, attach your power adapter and let the battery recharge.

 

==Battery Icon on Menu==
[[File:Battery_Icon_Mac.png|left| 300 px]]If the battery icon in the Finder menu bar is set to show the percentage of charge, sometimes the battery won’t show a full 100 percent charge when the power adapter is attached. This is normal behavior; battery life is maximized if charging is not continuously cycled on and off when the battery’s charge capacity is between 95 and 100 percent.

When the battery level eventually drops below 95 percent, it will charge all the way up to 100 percent.
Charging a battery when the power adapter is connected to your computer, the battery recharges whether the computer is off, on, or in sleep. However, the battery recharges more quickly if the computer is off or in sleep. When the computer is on, you can monitor the battery charge level using the battery status icon in the menu bar.

The battery charge level displayed is based on the amount of power left in the battery with the applications, peripheral devices, and system settings (display brightness, Energy Saver settings, and so on) you are currently using. To conserve battery power, close applications and disconnect peripheral devices not in use, and adjust your Energy Saver settings (see the next section).

 

==Battery Conservation Tips==
The amount of work time your MacBook battery can provide before you need to recharge depends on the applications and peripheral devices you’re currently using and the steps you take to conserve power while you work. For the best conservation of battery power, do the following:
*Disconnect bus-powered USB or FireWire devices when they are not in use.
*Quit open applications that you are not using.
*Turn off AirPort or Bluetooth wireless when they are not in use. (Use the AirPort and Bluetooth status icons in the menu bar. If these icons don’t appear in the menu bar, you can turn them on in the Network and Bluetooth panes of System Preferences.)
*Remove CD and DVD discs when they are not in use.
*Reduce screen brightness using the brightness controls on the MacBook keyboard.
*Set the hard disk to spin down after a short time. In the Energy Saver pane of System Preferences, select the “Put the hard disk to sleep when possible” option.
*Set your MacBook to sleep after inactivity of five minutes or less.

Your MacBook is preset to automatically reduce its processing speed during periods of low processing activity when using battery power, thus reducing power usage. The setting that determines this is the Normal option in the Optimization pop-up menu of the [[Energy Saving Information (Mac)| '''Energy Saver''']] pane of System Preferences.

During periods of high processing activity, your computer will automatically switch to a higher processing speed. To conserve the most battery life, choose Better Battery Life from the Optimization pop-up menu. However, choosing this option may affect your computer’s performance.

To set your computer to use its highest processing speed at all times, choose Better Performance.

==Calibrating Your Battery==
To get the longest running time from your battery: '''calibrate it sometime during the first week you have your MacBook and recalibrate monthly to keep your battery functioning at its fullest capacity'''.

To calibrate your battery:
#Plug in the power adapter and fully charge your MacBook battery until the light on the power adapter plug changes to green and the Battery icon in the menu bar indicates that the battery is fully charged.
#Allow the battery to rest in the fully charged state for two hours or longer. You may use your computer during this time as long as the adapter is plugged in.
#Disconnect the power adapter with the MacBook on and start running it from the battery. You may use your computer during this time.
#When your battery gets low, you’ll see the low battery warning dialog on the screen.
#Continue to keep your computer turned on until it goes to sleep. Save your work and close all applications when the battery gets low and before the system goes to sleep.
#Turn off the computer or allow it to sleep for five hours or longer.
#Connect the power adapter and leave it connected until the battery is fully charged again.

:''Important'': Repeat the calibration process at least once per Semester to keep your battery fully functioning. If you use your MacBook infrequently, it’s best to recalibrate the battery at least once a month. If you purchased additional batteries, repeat the calibration procedure with those batteries as well.

==Calibrating Your Battery==
To get the longest running time from your battery: '''calibrate it sometime during the first week you have your MacBook and recalibrate monthly to keep your battery functioning at its fullest capacity'''.

To calibrate your battery:
#Plug in the power adapter and fully charge your MacBook battery until the light on the power adapter plug changes to green and the Battery icon in the menu bar indicates that the battery is fully charged.
#Allow the battery to rest in the fully charged state for two hours or longer. You may use your computer during this time as long as the adapter is plugged in.
#Disconnect the power adapter with the MacBook on and start running it from the battery. You may use your computer during this time.
#When your battery gets low, you’ll see the low battery warning dialog on the screen.
#Continue to keep your computer turned on until it goes to sleep. Save your work and close all applications when the battery gets low and before the system goes to sleep.
#Turn off the computer or allow it to sleep for five hours or longer.
#Connect the power adapter and leave it connected until the battery is fully charged again.

:''Important'': Repeat the calibration process at least once per Semester to keep your battery fully functioning. If you use your MacBook infrequently, it’s best to recalibrate the battery at least once a month. If you purchased additional batteries, repeat the calibration procedure with those batteries as well.

Draft:Getting the Most Out of Your Battery (Mac)

NSchmitt10: /* Using Your Battery */

The newer MacBook Pro has a built-in battery.

==Using Your Battery==

When the external power adapter is not connected, your computer draws power from its battery. The length of time that you can run your MacBook depends on what you are doing on your Mac. Turning off features such as wireless technology can help conserve battery charge.

You can determine the charge left in your battery by looking at the battery level indicator lights on the left side of your MacBook. Press the button next to the lights, and the lights glow briefly to show how much charge is left in the battery.

:::[[File:Battery_Indicator.png|left|200px]]

'''Important:''' If only one indicator light is on, very little charge is left. If no lights are visible, the battery is completely drained and the computer will not start up unless the power adapter is connected. Plug in the power adapter to let the battery recharge, or replace the drained battery with a fully charged battery. If your battery runs low while you are working, attach your power adapter and let the battery recharge.

 

==Battery Icon on Menu==
[[File:Battery_Icon_Mac.png|left| 300 px]]If the battery icon in the Finder menu bar is set to show the percentage of charge, sometimes the battery won’t show a full 100 percent charge when the power adapter is attached. This is normal behavior; battery life is maximized if charging is not continuously cycled on and off when the battery’s charge capacity is between 95 and 100 percent.

When the battery level eventually drops below 95 percent, it will charge all the way up to 100 percent.
Charging a Battery
When the power adapter is connected to your computer, the battery recharges whether the computer is off, on, or in sleep. However, the battery recharges more quickly if the computer is off or in sleep. When the computer is on, you can monitor the battery charge level using the Battery status icon in the menu bar.

The battery charge level displayed is based on the amount of power left in the battery with the applications, peripheral devices, and system settings (display brightness, Energy Saver settings, and so on) you are currently using. To conserve battery power, close applications and disconnect peripheral devices not in use, and adjust your Energy Saver settings (see the next section).

==Battery Conservation Tips==
The amount of work time your MacBook battery can provide before you need to recharge depends on the applications and peripheral devices you’re currently using and the steps you take to conserve power while you work. For the best conservation of battery power, do the following:
*Disconnect bus-powered USB or FireWire devices when they are not in use.
*Quit open applications that you are not using.
*Turn off AirPort or Bluetooth wireless when they are not in use. (Use the AirPort and Bluetooth status icons in the menu bar. If these icons don’t appear in the menu bar, you can turn them on in the Network and Bluetooth panes of System Preferences.)
*Remove CD and DVD discs when they are not in use.
*Reduce screen brightness using the brightness controls on the MacBook keyboard.
*Set the hard disk to spin down after a short time. In the Energy Saver pane of System Preferences, select the “Put the hard disk to sleep when possible” option.

NSchmitt10: /* Tip: */

[[File:MacSlider.jpg|300px]]

==About Energy Saver==
*The slider controls in Energy Saver preferences affect what happens when the computer is left unattended, also known as an "idle state."

*This preference controls what happens when the computer is left idle for the time you specify. You can indicate if displays should sleep or if hard disk(s) should spin down when the computer is idle.

*If you set the "Put the display to sleep..." slider lower than the "Put the computer to sleep..." slider, the display will sleep (if possible) once the computer has been idle long enough.

*If the computer remains idle longer (how long depends on what you've set the "Put the computer to sleep..." slider to), it will go into full sleep mode after display sleep (unless you've set the "Put the computer to sleep..." slider to Never).

*You cannot set the "Put the computer to sleep..." slider lower than the "Put the display to sleep..." slider because computer sleep includes display sleep, as detailed below in the "What happens when the computer goes to sleep..." section.

==Making the computer sleep immediately==
When you do any of the following you tell the computer to immediately go to sleep, ignoring your Energy Saver settings:
*Choose Sleep from the Apple menu
*Click Sleep after pressing the power key
*Close the lid of a portable computer
What happens when the computer goes to sleep (not just into idle mode or display sleep)?
On all computers:
*The microprocessor goes into a low-power mode
*Video output is turned off, and the connected display may turn off as well, or enter its own idle state
*Apple-supplied hard disks spin down
*Third-party hard disks may spin down

==On portable Macs:==
*The Ethernet port turns off (see Note below)
*Expansion card slots (such as PCMCIA) turn off
*The built-in modem turns off (see Note below)
*An AirPort card, if present, turns off (see Note below)
*The USB connection only responds to the power key on an external keyboard (see Tip below)
*The optical media drive spins down
*Audio input and output turns off
*Bluetooth turns off
*Keyboard illumination, if a feature of your portable computer, turns off

As you might guess, a computer uses considerable less power when in sleep mode than when awake. The computer will continue to power [[RAM]] in sleep mode, so that whatever was in RAM when the computer went to sleep will still be there when the computer wakes. This also means that computers with more RAM use slightly more power in sleep mode.
Note: Portable computers have no network connectivity when in sleep mode, but can wake if the Energy Saver options "Wake when the modem detects a ring" or "Wake for Ethernet network administrator access" are enabled. If you wish to use file sharing or don't want to interrupt your Internet connection, do not manually put the computer to sleep and drag the "Put the computer to sleep when it is inactive" slider to Never.

===Tip:===
To wake a portable Mac from sleep mode with an external keyboard, you must press the power key on the external keyboard (if it has one) or any key on the built-in keyboard. Other keys on the external keyboard will not wake the portable computer from sleep in this power-saving state. If the computer is not completely asleep, but has simply spun down the hard drive and dimmed the display on idle, pressing any key on either keyboard will "wake" the computer.
What might prevent a computer from going to sleep or going into an idle state? If Apple DVD Player is the active application, the computer will not go to sleep when left idle. Other applications, such as some fax software, can also prevent the computer from going to sleep regardless of Energy Saver preference settings.
How does Energy Saver work in Safe Mode or started from a startup CD or DVD? If the computer is started in Safe Mode or from a startup disc, default Energy Saver settings are in effect, which may differ from settings you've set in Energy Saver preferences. Energy Saver is not "disabled" when started in Safe Mode or from a startup disc.
