<strong>Main Report or Narrative:</strong>

On Tuesday I was only in for an hour (I don't usually work Tuesdays and had a meeting until 11:30 or so); during that time I started looking at the printer in the lab and tried to figure out whether I could get the last lab computer to work.  The computer is still a mystery; I can't update it and I don't think the wireless card won't work until it's updated--it would probably be most efficient to either reimage the disk or replace the computer.  Since I only have CPS image DVDs and the computer doesn't have a DVD drive, though, I'll probably just end up replacing it.

On Wednesday and Thursday Ms. Glover wasn't at school (she had a conference, I think), but the lab was still open.  I think they've finally finished NWEA testing.  I installed Office 2007 on the teacher station in the library (Ms. Glover has it on her computer in the office, I guess, and she doens't like switching between interfaces).  I also worked on some computers in a classroom on the first floor to make sure that they all had the same programs installed.

I also encountered an odd SMARTboard problem in 105 which I was unable to resolve in which the screen capture function does not appear to work fully (the captured image fails to show up in Notebook, even though everything else looks to be working correctly.  I spent a while on Friday researching this problem to no avail; I finally sent an email to SMART tech support, but I haven't heard back from them (yet).  I am also waiting for Ms. Glover to come back to talk to her about the printer in the lab: it seems to be out of two colors of toner, and I don't think it will work without them, so we need to decide whether to replace the cartridges or the printer.
