M.A. Hochberg’s Technology for Teaching

With all the changes in our classroom configurations, we created new room folders on the school server. It certainly made it easier to get folders for everyone but…..

you also have to change the permissions for the new classroom folder so students can save their work in their folders. Here’s what to do:

1. Connect to the server and open the Rooms folder.
2. Select one of the classroom folders (i.e., mlrm20).
3. Press Command-I to see the Ownership and Permissions.
4. In the Owner field, after “4jNET\” type the user name that students use to log in (i.e., mlrm20).
5. Click on “Apply to enclosed items.”
6. Repeat for each class folder that is having problems.

Thanks to Peggy for teaching me this—and thank goodness it was only one class that couldn’t save their work!
