I
want to use the instructional multimedia in the classroom - how?
You have several choices,
depending on your resources available.
- If you have a
"smart" classroom, you can go directly to the multimedia page
and either view the media online or download it to your computer to
present in class. Note that you may have to have the appropriate plugins
installed for this to work properly, so check with classroom support
services before you plan to show the media.
- If you have a
laptop and access to a projector, you can download the multimedia that
is downloadable and run it from your laptop. The download
file may or may not require a plugin, so make certain you have the necessary
plugins available.

or spoken instructions, make certain the URL for the multimedia page is
easily readable and spelled correctly. Explain the reason for plugins and
tell your students how to find the media. If you are making a link from
your web page, follow these instructions.
