NovaNET User Manual for C-Router Instructors. Second Edition Revised.
Fortner, Monica B.; Davis, Dennis M.
The NovaNET computer system is a mainframe system with a large network of users sharing the same computer. This manual is intended to teach instructors how to use the NovaNET system to deliver instruction to their students. The manual is divided into four main sections, each of which teaches a group of skills needed by NovaNET instructors. The first section teaches instructors how to sign on to the system, how to get help and information about the system, and how to use the network's advanced communications features. The second section describes the C-router package, which is a general purpose tool for managing instruction on the NovaNET system, and teaches first-time users how to set up a useable group of learning modules by borrowing from existing curricula. The third section teaches the normal, daily operation of C-router: how to set up a class roster, see the curriculum, and monitor student progress and performance. The last section teaches how to select lessons from the large catalog of NovaNET lessons and build them into a C-router curriculum. It is noted that the second, third, and fourth sections can be used by authors as well as by instructors. Additional information is appended and an index is provided. (DB)
