Computer Preparation 1. Computers need to be turned on and Internet access established. The urls for the weather sites are quite long and should be either bookmarked, on school homepage, or accessed by another page. Multimedia Connection 1. Students learn how to highlight, copy, and paste text.
Students can copy chunks of text to a word processor for printing.
First they must highlight the text they want. Once the text is highlighted students click 'edit' on the browser's status line and then choose 'copy'. Students then print their work from the word processor. Generally, this is a good idea, especially, it a networked lab. Large pictures and unwanted text and graphics don't get printed and either jam or overload your printer.
