[info-tech] Projectors vs. LCD

I know we have had this discussion before but I can't find it.  What would you 
rather prefer for classrooms.  LCD or Projectors?

We have projectors in all of our middle school classrooms and our teachers do 
not use them because they are too hard to use they say.  Please give me some of 
your opinions on what you think.

If you are willing to do that, that would be great. I got a product key already 
but I must have scratched my dvd somehow.  But I just tried loading Vista also 
and I get the same error message.  So now I don't think it is Windows 7.

It's "no longer available for download" on the MS site.  I think if you can get 
the media or iso, you can still get a product key for it, though.  I could burn 
you an install DVD and send it to you, if you want.

Ok.  Well than it must have been my hard-drive.  I switched that out and now I 
got vista to at least install.  So I will finish that up and then try 7.

[info-tech] info-tech] Lightspeed Custom Reports

I'm trying to make up some custom reports for our teachers here.  But when I'm 
in lightspeed and under the reports tab, custom reports.  I go to the Manage 
Custom Reports but I do not find anywhere that I can make a custom report.  I 
have looked on the lightspeed wiki and it shows me where I should find it but 
do not see anything.  Anyone have any idea.  I did do the upgrade to 7.02.00 so 
you know.  If you have any help for me please let me know.

As I'm getting ready for the 2009-2010 school year I need a little help from 
you guys again.  What I'm looking for is a list of what privileges you give 
your teachers.  As for what they can and can't do on their systems.  I'm 
looking to lock them down pretty tight but I have to have other schools input 
before I can do this.  So if your teachers are locked down please let me know 
what they can do as for running programs, installing programs, and then some.

Thanks

RE: [info-tech] Technology Associate

[Mueller, Mitch]

Same here.  I really don't have an associate either but I have a few teachers 
that are very good with the technology in each of our building.  Also our Dean 
of Students is always up to date with their technology.  And we also have a 
secretary that does help out at the elementary building but just does a little 
bit when she can.  Nothing major like Karl's got.

I don't have an associate per-se she is hired as a secretary.  She is
half time and she helps with a variety of things.  There is not a hard
and fast job description, but she helps with Web updates, Project
EASIER, Student password resets, she does a little front-line trouble
shooting (like is it plugged in), she does a lot with JMC, creates
documents and reports for me and proofs things that I need to send
out.  Actually without her I would never be able to twitter or check
facebook during the day ;)  This is my second here with a person in
this capacity and she was hired to help when I took on curriculum
duties so she does help a lot with those as well. Lance if you need
anything more formal just drop me a note.

RE: [info-tech] Updating Computers

[Mueller, Mitch]

That is kind of the answer I have been looking for.  I was told not to do a 
WSUS server but just to know that my computers are up to date.  I was told to 
keep it out of my network but at least I do know if they are getting done that 
way.

We also use WSUS and Group Policy. Once it is set up, approving or declining 
updates isn't a big deal. Not compared to the time you would spend if you 
physically had to go and touch every machine. I think that just "trusting" that 
your end users to apply the updates wouldn't give you the oversight as to 
whether or not patches were being applied as desired. With WSUS you have the 
option to verify which machines are compliant and which are lacking updates. 
Then, if you have to physically go to one or two machines that are having 
issues, at least the other 99% are fully patched to your specifications. Also, 
if you have certain computers that run mission critical apps, you would be able 
to create a special schedule to apply updates to these machines. Then, your 
everyday use PC's are patched and running without any risk of security exploits 
and all of the other stuff that Microsoft says could happen if you don't 
update. JMO...

How do you guys keep your computers up to date.  Teacher computers and student 
computers.  I sent out instructions how to specifically how to up date your 
computers but our principal does not want them to do it..  Please give me

Ok.  Well I'm going to run that by him and see if we can set up something like 
that.  Get a desktop in each building with server on it and get it set up that 
way.

I'm not so concerned with all the security updates and such with the Macs  that 
I would be with the PC environment.   I think 
it would be a nightmare to continually have to touch each computer.  Unless I 
can run them all around the same time . . .  I don't mess with having different 
versions of everything running.  That gets too crazy with different versions of 
software.

I think you should ask for all new computers on the Mac platform if you can't 
let them do it nor do it how the others have suggested.  Then you don't have to 
worry about it. JK

I have the building principals collect the teacher laptops in the summer at

Well I was going to try that but he don't want me to do that either because it

I spoke with you last week about scheduling a presentation at your Technology 
Coordinator meeting.  I noticed you had time on March 19th and April 16th.  
Since we are out of state - we usually conduct these presentations using WebEx. 
 Is this possible?

Also, we have several topics we could present on.  Which one would be of 
interest to your AEA?

Virtualization VooDoo Series
Series One covers VMWare VI3 Server and Storage consolidation through 
virtualization. We'll also discuss VMWare's key features, how to size your 
environment and some technological advances on implementing a cost effective 
solution for server & storage consolidation.

Series Two - Covers the features & advantages of VDI Desktop Virtualization and 
how to setup low cost solutions for student labs, desktop replacement, and 
laptop users.

Series Three - This series will provide you with Storage Virtualization 
concepts along with VMware Consolidated Backup information.  We will also 
discuss how to optimize your VMware environment in terms of performance, backup 
and disaster recovery.

Email Archival
We will discuss the Email Archival compliance issues Districts are facing.  
We'll review
The three top technologies used in providing email archival today (RFC-822, 
Journaling & Log shipping/Replication) along with each method's pros & cons.

Backup & Archival
We'll discuss the traditional Backup methodologies versus more advanced 
techniques.  We also highlight our signature backup solution which is used 
predominately by the Ohio ITC's.

Storage Strategies
We'll discuss traditional storage methodologies versus File & Block level 
virtualization.  We'll highlight the key features of storage virtualization 
along with some of the new hybrid offerings - combining server Virtualization & 
Storage Virtualization in a single appliance.

Can anyone out there give me some ideas of why we are not get outside
emails.  It is weird, but we can get the info tech emails but nothing
else.  I get all of your emails to show up on the info-tech list but I
do not get to see that I sent an email to you guys.  Anything at all

We do not. We use Win 2003 for our thin clients. The clients boot using
a Linux kernel but it takes them straight into the RDP session. No user
interaction with Linux.

Do you guys use the LTSP from linux to do the terminal services at
Okoboji?  I was told that you might have been the school that does that
with teacher laptops.  Just wondering because we are looking to change a
bunch of stuff around over this summer since I screwed up my domain
somehow.  Anyway we were thinking about going to linux.  I don't know
much about it but my high school principal does.  We thought we could
save a bunch on license fees by doing this and it would be easier for me
to manage.

I have also tested with this, and the biggest problem I have run into is
getting the wireless to work without effort from the user, let alone me
finding drivers that will work and getting them installed. NDISwrapper
works, but not without much hassle. Has anyone else tested with the
wireless part in play? It works nicely with certain wireless cards, but
none of those happen to be installed in the laptops here.

I've been thinking about the same thing the past few days.  I put the
newest version of OpenSuse using KDE 4 on a desktop here, it joined the
AD domain easily and everything works really smoothly with no effort on
my part.  I really like a lot of the new things in KDE 4 already.  I
totally agree that students would have the least amount of trouble
changing, but I've seen a few little things that staff would like too.

More fuel for the open source gang, sure would be tempting to switch but
having teachers change, that's another story. I think the kids would be
more willing. If KD4 could work within its typical framework (smaller
OS, quicker, needs less memory), this would be interesting to test with
a few groups of students. One could ask for volunteers from the students
to see who would be interested. (The bigger hassle would be keeping
these Gateway laptops alive)

I think LightSpeed is even working on a client for such...

LanSchool does that and also allows teachers control for teaching a class. For 
example a teacher using the media center with her class can blank the screens 
of the thin clients with say a message like "eyes on the teacher please". Then 
she can release the screens when ready. Keeps them from screwing around and not 
paying attention. It is also very reasonably priced.. The media center person 
can watch the desktops lock the keyboards, snap shot the screens , etc.

Ok.  Well that kinda of stinks.  My terminal server is located on a windows 
2003.  Next year it will be done with xp pro though.  What if my pc is not the 
terminal server, will that still work.

LanSchool does that and also allows teachers control for teaching a class. For 
example a teacher using the media center with her class can blank the screens 
of the thin clients with say a message like "eyes on the teacher please". Then 
she can release the screens when ready. Keeps them from screwing around and not 
paying attention. It is also very reasonably priced. The media center person 
can watch the desktops lock the keyboards, snap shot the screens , etc.

Mitch,
I use Boztek VENM Console 2009. It uses VNC (I use Ultra w/ encryption) It is a 
download that is really cheap. I bought 1 admin license for $59. It works 
pretty well, and you can do a bunch of scripting things with it. I do not use 
it with the thin clients we have. For those I just hop on the thin client 
server and remote control them. It saves a bunch of trips to the other 
buildings because I just remote in when possible and fix things and walk people 
through things. The software is updated often (I think I have had 4 last week) 
to fix bugs and add features.
Then best part is the kids know that I can pop on there computer at any time, 
so every time the screen flickers they think it is me looking in on them. lol

After setting the logon user for the 3 services, did you restart those services?

Do you have the settings correct for the other two sections of that article?

Sounds like you need to divide and conquer.

First, figure out all problems on the inside of your network that pertain to 
LightSpeed, ie users not showing up on reports, sites not being blocked.
Second, figure out the problems with a single machine and using LightSpeed 
Guide, ie sites not being blocked, connection to the server from an outside 
address (firewall rules), getting updates while off the school network
Third, tackle the terminal services issue.

Have you tried LightSpeed support? They are usually pretty helpful in assisting 
with setup/functionality issues.

do this and what can we all do with it.  We currently have a server box that 
has the following specs:  (2) Dual Core 3.0 Xeon processors, will be willing to 
upgrade RAM to 32 Gb, and has 2.5 terabytes of hard-disk space.  Just wondering

It was very cool and efficient.
Who out there is using lightspeed for virus protection and filtering?   Can I

How about a user group - even a virtual one, that can help with hammering out

We have two mobile labs in our elementary.  One thing I have done is to have a 
wireless access point set up on the cart itself.  When the mobile lab is in a 
classroom, the base is then connected to the network in the classroom, thus 
keeping a strong signal for the mobile lab.

There is also a printer on the cart connected to the access point to provide 
for printing to be done in the classroom where the lab is located.

Just info to share for what it is worth.

RE: [info-tech] computer misuse policies.

[Mueller, Mitch]

We here at Emmetsburg are very strict.  Since we have enforced this new policy 
we haven't had as many kids misusing the computer.  Our policy starts with the 
first offense being 6 weeks no computers.  By that we mean no computer at all, 
even if they are currently enrolled into a computer class they will still have 
no computer usage.  The students are told that they will have to just do their 
homework at home.  When a class goes into use the computer from lets our U.S. 
History class the student will still get no computer privileges.  The second 
offense is then bumped up to 9 weeks or a whole quarters worth of no computers. 
 After that their third offense is 365 days from the time they lose it.  We 
consider anything misusage also.  For instance if they do try to get past the 
filter, plays online games, games on windows, chatting and that is about it.  
We do allow personal email because the kids do college classes online.  I guess 
we have never had a student hack into A.D. or look at teachers files before so 
if that comes up the punishment may be a little stricter.  If you have any more 
questions feel free to ask but I got all the info I can get to you.

I use a Freeguard 100 filtering device at the gateway at the school, but it 
cannot filter https traffic, because it is secure traffic.  So I also use 
www.opendns.com<http://www.opendns.com> to block the dns names, which also 
stops https sites.  OpenDNS has category blocking and proxies is one of it's 
categories.  So far, I'm pretty impressed by how many it gets.  I've been 
watching some of the students try now, and it does a really good job.  Plus 
it's free.

RE: [info-tech] Proxies [Spam score:8%]

[Mueller, Mitch]

You're saying you don't have all that many offenses huh?  We used to until the 
kids were told that we are able to watch every move they make.  Which we can't 
really but with LightSpeed we can do a pretty good job at it.  Our policy is 5 
weeks 1st offense, 9 weeks 2nd offense and the 3rd means you lose it for a full 
year.  So even if they lose it at with only 15 days left of school then they 
have to go a full year before they get it back.  That mean not only just to use 
in the library but even if they take a computer class they do not have computer 
privileges for that class.  They would have to do their work at home.

Our policy states that any attempt to bypass school proxies and/or filters is a 
violation of the AUP and the offender is subject to suspension of privileges.

We usually take away all computer access during the regular school day for 2 
weeks for 1st offense. Meaning, those without privileges have to come in before 
or after school to do any computer work at school.  With as much work as we do 
on computers here we rarely have 2nd offenses, but the time goes up from there. 
Last year one student lost privileges for a whole quarter. Just this morning I 
re-instated 3 students that were found to be playing games.

RE: [info-tech] Aplington-Parkersburg High School is a Finalist in the Henkel Helps Schools Contest

[Mueller, Mitch]

Congratulations!

Ms. Lynne Mulder nominated Aplington-Parkersburg High School for a $25,000 
prize from Henkel Helps Schools to improve your school, and our judges have 
selected your school as one of 10 finalists! Winners will be chosen by online, 
public voting.
Henke l is one of the country's largest marketers of household brands, 
including Dial(r) soaps, Purex(r) laundry detergents, Renuzit(r) air 
fresheners, Loctite(r) adhesives and Right Guard(r) antiperspirants.
Here was the entry for your school:
On May 25, 2008 an F5 tornado destroyed a third of the community of 
Parkersburg, IA. The high school was destroyed. High Schoolers will be 
attending the Middle School in Aplington making cramped quarters this school 
year, but everyone is determined to make it work. The construction of a new 
school will begin soon with the goal of being in it by the start of the 
2009-2010 school year. $25000 could be used in so many areas, new textbooks are 
needed, desks, computers, classroom equipment, sound equipment for the 
auditorium, the list goes on and on as so much was lost or damaged. The 
students have stepped up to help with cleanup in the community as well as 
hepling to get the other school buildings rearranged to house more students. It 
would be a wonderful reward for them to receive a grant such as this. So many 
of the students lost their own homes yet they want to continue helping others. 
My own children lost their granparents to the storm and they would like to make 
a contribution to the school in their honor. The students wil l face many 
emotional challenges this year in addition to the academic challenges of high 
school. Any contibution lets them know people care for them and want them to 
succeed and show that "Falcons Rise Again!"
>From the more than 1,500 entries we received, our judges have narrowed the 
>field to the top 10 nominations, and now it's up to you, your students, staff 
>and the community to help Aplington-Parkersburg High School win the $25,000 
>grand prize for renovations to your school, as nominated by Ms. Mulder. Two 
>runners up will each receive a check for $2,500.
We will be announcing the Top 10 through news releases to the national media, 
as well as media in your area the week of October 6. Please help us spread the 
word, and help your school win!
All you have to do is tell your students, staff and your community to visit 
www.henkelhelps.com from October 6th - October 19th to vote for your school. 
Each valid e-mail address will be allowed one vote per day. The school with the 
most votes at the end of the voting period will win $25,000 and a visit from H 
enkel representatives the week of October 27. We will work with the grand prize 
winner to set up an assembly for the check presentation. Official rules for the 
contest are on the Web site as well.

Don't forget that anyone, nationwide, with a valid e-mail can vote. Get 
everyone involved - and don't forget about your local media. If you do have 
contact with the media, please let me know, as I can help with follow up and 
get them any information necessary.
I also need your help in securing a few photos of your school, including a 
picture of the entire building, as well as a few that highlight the areas that 
Ms. Mulder pointed out in her nomination. These will be used on the 
www.henkelhelps.com Web site. You can e-mail them to me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
The sooner we can get these, the better - so thank you in advance for your 
quick cooperation!
Again, on behalf of Henkel, I congratulate you and wish your schoo l the best 
of luck. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. I'm 
happy to help however I can.
Best,
Melissa Evans

everything.  Easy to setup and can be moved easily.  They are crystal clear and

If anybody has purchased LCD's for the classroom, I have a few questions.

I've used Thinstation, but it's easier to use AnywhereTS-config v 2.0 or 2.1. 
Downloadable here 
http://www.brothersoft.com/anywherets-config-download-107073.html I think.

I would not recommend the newer version 3.x, but the old one works great and is 
really easy to use. If you do the cd client, it creates an .iso, you burn it, 
and you're off.

Does anyone out there use terminal services using the software called 
Thinstation.  You can find it at Thinstation.org.  I'm looking for help using 
it with the liveCD version.  We aren't able to get it to work with our LCD 
monitors at all.  Always is giving us the error out of range.  If you have any

Mitch,

I've used Thinstation, but it's easier to use AnywhereTS-config v 2.0 or 2.1. 
Downloadable here 
http://www.brothersoft.com/anywherets-config-download-107073.html I think.

I would not recommend the newer version 3.x, but the old one works great and is 
really easy to use. If you do the cd client, it creates an .iso, you burn it, 
and you're off.

Mitch, likely that means that the AD location

If you have your students in different OUs (say, by the year of graduation), 
then you will have to change the UserDN accordingly. Another possible reason 
for that error might be that you are pointing to an object (like a computer or 
group) that does not support 'dsmod user'.

That is the 'formula' (except I forgot the first 2, and most important words:

Does anyone out there have a script or an easier way to reset username

Thanks

But how would I do that without having to select each individual user and 
clicking reset password.

Mitch,

That is the 'formula' (except I forgot the first 2, and most important words: 
dsmod user) it is just a long string really with the pertinent information from 
the other columns put in there (such as username and password). I will attach a 
spreadsheet with an expample.

Happy Friday-

Just wanted to pass along this neat little application I ran across 
that ties right into Atomic Learning, one of the on-line services provided by 
Iowa AEA On-line.  Atomic Learning has created a Java application you can 
install on your desktop (both Mac and PC) that will allow you to search their 
tutorials right from your desktop through the application, and not the web 
browser.  Once you find one you want to watch, you can also play it through the 
application as well.  Works pretty well, and will allow an easier link into the 
Atomic Learning library.

You can find more information at:

http://movies.atomiclearning.com/k12/atomictoolkit

Have a great weekend!!!
