Ask me anything

how do i connect to the lesley wirless?

you first need to enable your wifi-adapter... this can be done either by clicking "Turn on Airport" on your mac, or flipping a switch on your PC... *please refer to your specific instruction manual.

Once your adapter is turned on, let it scan.. If you are in a lesley wi-fi area, you will see Lesley_Wireless and Lesley_Secure.... Lesley_Wireless will let you connect w/out a password.... lesley_secure requires a password which you can find @ http://lesley.edu/wireless

Once you connect, open a web-browser and go to http://www.google.com (or something very simple)...
it will ask you to login using your Lesley Username and Password.

Cheers!

New DOBL-209 & DOBL-213

Here's a quick demo of the dual-screen functions in DOBL-209 & DOBL-213

Revving up for the Fall...

GOSH, it's been a busy past couple of weeks.
To give you an update of some of the things to expect:

• New classroom documentation
  We have placed new "black-box" how-to posters within the rooms (attached to the cabinet doors).  These signs should provide a quick-glance guide on what to expect from the blackbox components and how to report problems.
  
• A Laptop-Connection troubleshoot guide
  These flyers provide a quick reference for troubleshooting malfunctioning projection.  *e.g. did you check this?
  
• A new wifi-poster
  
  We are working on creating lesley branded wifi posters that will inform users of public wifi hotspots around campus.
  
• A new Faculty Survival Guide (2010-2011)
  This 7-page document gives a quick guide on the campus resources available to teachers.  These guides will be handed out during Faculty Development Day (Sept 8), and is available for download here:  Faculty Survival Guide

Sherrill MacBooks... and some issues.

We have discovered an interesting quirk about a certain line of 13" MacBook Pro models.

Known issue:
After installing Apple MultiTouch support in Windows XPSP3, we discovered that these machines started behaving erratically... their boot times jumped from a one-minute load-time to anywhere from 5-10 minutes.
We investigated the issue and explored a number of options, but for the time being, we have disabled Multi-Touch Support in Windows XP.... :(
I know, I know...

this means no two-touch scrolling, no right-clicking, no gestures, and no pinch-and-zoom under Windows XP.  Luckily, the library has provided a number of two-button scroll mice for Windows users.

Needless to say, MacOSX still has multi-touch support.

We are working diligently to find a solution and are in contact with other providers that use these particular hardware types.
Expect an upgrade/fix for the Spring 2011
