Site Use and Navigation

    First of all, you need to understand that the material on
    this site is intended to help you become a better student.

    The site is designed to be easy to navigate. Longer pages can
    be scrolled using the scroll bar on the right of the page. Most
    pages should have buttons at the bottom which will allow you
    to jump back to the top. There are also links to the home page,
    the main history page, and to the syllabus.

    Over the next several years, more college classes will be
    including Internet materials, so this class may help you get
    comfortable with the idea of using the Internet as an
    educational tool. Don't worry if you feel overwhelmed
    at first. Think of the Internet as the world's largest
    library; use what you need.

    You should realize that in college classes students are
    responsible for reading everything in the textbook unless
    the instructor indicates otherwise. If you read and understand
    the textbook and pay attention to class lectures and discussions,
    and take clear notes, you should be prepared. Make sure you
    read Cramming.

    Everything on the tests will be covered in either the lectures
    or the textbook. The Web pages are supplementary materials.

      The links provide access to a variety of materials which can
    be quite useful. If the text does not explain a topic as clearly
    as you might like, you may find the Web pages helpful.
    If you miss class, you can review the material covered in
    class by checking the schedule.

    There are a variety of pages linked to this site, but you are
    not required to look at them all. If a topic interests you, go
    ahead and explore. If there are areas where you think you
    might need some more information, follow the links you
    think will be useful.

    Web pages can be read, printed, or saved to a disc. If you
    don't know how to save them, just click on the save button
    at the top of the page or click on the file button and a menu
    will drop down, click on save. Make sure to save the file on
    a floppy in drive A. Give the file a name and click on save.
    Do not save any files on the hard drive / C drive on any of
    the school's computers.
