The Andover Schools use Fortress, an added security program that works in concert with the Policy Editor in Windows, Office, and other application software, to block specific files and directories so the students cannot get to them. That way, when the classroom teacher and the students need to use the resources, they are there and available. Office 2000 Easy to Use Almost as soon as Tode had made the decision to upgrade to the Office 2000 suite, by a stroke of luck, the district ended up receiving 400 copies as a donation. Now that many of the district's users have access to the Office 2000 software, they appreciate how easy it is to gain access to the suite's broad range of functionality. Specifically, channel 51 of the network is a dedicated training channel for the school district, running continuous tapes on how to use Word, Access, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook features.
Teachers watch the tapes during their free periods, and quickly become trained on the software.
By working with Microsoft, and by putting our faith in Office 2000 and Windows 2000, we think we've done exactly that. All rights reserved. The names of actual companies and products mentioned herein may be the trademarks of their respective owners. All rights reserved. Terms of use.
