The Virtual Office

Introduction One way to simplify distributed course delivery is to provide a "virtual workspace" like the one shown above, which integrates all the web-based media you plan to use.
This particular "office" provides easy access to a chat room, a course schedule (wall calendar), email (the computer), file transfer (file drawers), course readings and related documents (bookcase), video conferencing (TV), and a course forum (bulletin board).
Your Virtual office utilizes a Netscape Plugin called Shockwave. Shockwave enables the playback of high-impact multimedia on the World Wide Web, setting a new level of interactive performance on the Internet.

What's neccessary
to activate your virtual office?

#1

Shockwave is currently available only for Netscape's Navigator 2.0 or later. If you don't have Netscape Navigator 2.0 or a later version, please download the latest version of Netscape Navigator by following this link.

After downloading the latest version (Netscape Navigator 2.0), please install it and return here after you are finished.

#2	Without a doubt you'll need the Shockwave plugin. Installation instructions are available at the download page. After downloading the Shockwave plugin, please install it on your computer and return to this page.

#3	The Virtual Office will work without this helper application, BUT you'll miss the cool internet video. It is difficult to install, but give it a go. The installation instructions are available from the download page. If you are having problems ask for help at the Forum.

Once you have all of the above applications you'll be ready to go to work in your virtual office!

To enter your office all you have to do is click this picture.
