Welcome to the TEAMS Academy Wiki!
Announcements!
CHECK THE STUDENT PAGE FOR THE EXTRA HELP PAGE. LET US KNOW IF YOUR COMING AND WHAT YOU WANT TO GO OVER!!
1. Please complete a Teams Entrance Survey.
2. Keep your eyes open for updates for the Robotics and EnvBio assignments pages--we are in the process of updating those pages.
3. Here is a good (free!) way to communicate with teammates (or to participate in class if you are sick)...
a. Consider downloading & setting up a free Skype account to communicate with your peers. You'll need a microphone & webcam (if you want video) if your computer doesn't already have one ( examples of an inexpensive webcam+mike, $25 and up).
b. Also consider donwnloading and installing Lotus Unyte. This program works through Skpye to allow the person on the other end of the conversation to see you computer's desktop, powerpoint, documents, etc. Unyte will be a great tool for you to have if you are out sick and want to see a class presentation or if you need help troubleshooting your robotics programs.
4. Bus Schedule (as of 9/2) Here is the revised bus schedule (pdf file that can be opened with Adobe Acrobat). Please be at the stop 5 minutes early, and be patient (wait at least 5 minutes before giving Rhine a call). We need to iron out some wrinkles the first few days.
