General Care Store in appropriate location

cloth Note: please do not use the Magic Eraser

because it can mar the finish on the laptop.

Legacy Computers

Connect to the Internet with server access (i.e., teacher hand-in/hand-out folders or campus folder)

Can print

 Accessing the Local Home and Network

Folders

Changes to Teacher Login

All staff and student accounts will use their Network Account The Network Account has been

referred to as your ASPEN at home login

High schools and administrators are currently using the Network Account

This is the first step in a move toward a single sign-on.

Active DirectoryHCPSS is moving toward an Active Directory system meaning that one username and password can log the user into many

different systems.

After RP your username and password will give you access to:

• Your assigned teacher laptop (Mac OS)

• Your assigned teacher laptop (Windows OS)

• Lab & building computers on the network

• Remote Access (https://ra.hcpss.org) (to use Aspen from home)

Over time additional functions will be added to

AD. Today everything listed above requires individual

login credentials.

Changes to Student Login

High School: Login remains the same

Middle School: Login remains the same (except for a few

duplicates in names from each school)

Elementary School: Login will be similar to the current login.  The

new login will add 2 letters to make all ES student logins unique across the school system i.e. bw12s001 (bw=Bryant Woods)

Home Directory Folder

Desktop items and items in the Home Directory are only available on the local machine

To access files from other computers when logged on to the network, the files must be placed in a network folder (Network Home, Campus, Hand In/Out)

House =

Local

Network Folders There are three types of folders on the server that

you can access when logged on to the network : Network Home Campus Hand In/Out

Staff have full control over all of the folders (can view, edit, add, delete files and folders)

Students can view files and can edit their own files in the Hand-In folder

Hand-In/Hand-Out folders do not count toward teachers storage allocation

Network Folders

Students are allocated 1 GB of server space Teachers are allocated 5 GB of server space

KB < MB < GB < TB

Network Home Folder

• All teachers have a folder on the server called “network home” and is represented by their login name

kwisniewski

Campus Folder

The CAMPUS folder is shared

server space that can be accessed

by any teacher on the instructional

network

Hand-In /Hand-Out Folders

Backing Up Files In the event of malfunction, laptops will be re-

imaged You are responsible for backing up

instructional files on a regular basis Two methods:

1) REQUIRED: Save to server 2) OPTIONAL: Save to external source

Burn to CD/DVD Copy to an external hard drive USB device (not as your primary back-up)

Change Password – Preferred Method

(Mac) You can change your password

by going to the system preferences - Accounts After changing your pw:

Logout and login with new password while connected to the network (Ethernet cable plugged into the wall jack) so you can login from home

If you have Windows installed: Username and password are

the same for each OS You need to logout and login

with new password while connected to the network

Note: Your login Remote/Home Aspen password is the same as your Mac and Windows login password.

Changing the password for one will change it for all of these. Aspen from school is separate from this.
