Does the man in the video sound different from your teacher? The man is from Britain. He has an English accent. Your teacher is from America. She has an American accent. Can you understand what he is saying?
Look at the questions under the video. Can you answer the questions?
(Don’t answer the questions. This is not homework. You can read the questions in the summer.)
Do you like computers? Do you like your cell phone? Maybe you don’t like these things, but you need to use them. Computers, cell phones, TV and video games are digital technologies. In the future you will need digital technologies for many things:
For money and services from the government
To get a job
To get help from a doctor
To get an apartment or house
For school
The government, businesses, doctors, real estate companies and schools don’t like to pay a lot of secretaries. It is easy for them to work with you on the computer. They want you to use the computer and the internet to do things with them.
In the fall, you will need to use the computer to stay in school. Your new English classes will start August 17, 2020. To register for classes, you need touse a computer. You need to get an email address and a password. You need to sign into a computer program called Schoology.
3. Read the instructions. I will help you get your email and password.
First, you need to get an email and password from the school. The school wrote an email address for you. You cannot use an old email. You cannot use the email of your child, wife, husband or friend. You need to use the new email from the school. I will send you the email from the school by the computer program REMIND. Write your email on paper!
I will send you your email and id number and code on remind. I will send you your email on remind.
Second you need your student ID number. If you have an identification card, the student ID number is on the card. If you have your registration form, the student ID number is on the registration form. I will send you your student ID number by Remind. Write your student ID number on paper.
Third you need your pin number or passcode. This is a number from your school. You use it to get schoology. You do not use it every day. I will send you your pin number in Remind. Write your pin number on paper.
Fourth you need to think of a password. A password has 10 letters, numbers and symbols. A good password is not a name. A good password has BIG LETTERS and small letters. It has symbols. ! ? # $ % & * are symbols.
This is a good password. Aj552X?&$b It has BIG LETTERS, small letters, numbers and symbols. No one can guess it.
This is a bad password jadiaz1999 It uses a name. It doesn’t have a BIG LETTER. It only has one number. There is no symbol. Bad!
Think of a password you like. Write the password. Keep the password.
Now, on your paper do you have an email address, a student id number, a passcode/pin number and a password? Good! Now you can register your SSO in the school.
Jane Diaz has an email, student ID number, pin number and password. She is ready!
