<strong>Kind of Work:</strong> Tech general

<strong>Main Report or Narrative: </strong>First Mitch showed me around the school and the office, and I was shown the sign in book and the teacher's request book. I got introduced to Mrs. Zivko, and Mitch told me how the school's server is structured. I helped fix the dpi display on one computer, and then helped work on the school website in dreamweaver to add a gradebook button to the page, and correct the link to CPS to the public face.

On Thursday, I met Zhang and he told me about some of the projects the school had worked on in the past. He showed me the IDF room and the computers he was working on. I spent a while logging in on most of the computers in the lab as techco and disabling the synchronization. I also enabled the volume control on some of the computers. Finally I changed the monitor settings of a lot of the computers to better fit the screens.

Friday, I set up three flatscreen monitors and put the old ones in the IDF room. I also hooked up the principal's old computer after Zhang had replaced the hard drive from it the previous day. I put it in the room of the new special ed teacher. Apparently there's a shortage of USB mice and keyboards. I attempted to organize large bunches of wires in the IDF room, but only partially succeeded in sorting through the mass of cords. There are quite a few unused power cords.
