5 Florida Tech Online User s Guide for Students Introduction Welcome to Florida Tech University Online Degree Program!

So, if you re ready, turn the page and let s get started! 1

6 Online User s Guide for Students Florida Tech What You Need to Get Started Minimum System Requirements The Online Degree Program Website is designed to provide a fully functional and highly interactive learning environment. The following are the minimum requirements your system must meet to successfully use the Website. Pentium 266 MHz 64MB RAM 250MB free Hard Drive space 56.6 bps modem (DSL, ISDN, or Cable Modem recommended for streaming video) 32x CD-ROM Windows 2000 or XP Internet Explorer 6.0 Internet Service Provider (AOL is acceptable with stipulations) QuickTime 7.1 Adobe Acrobat Reader 6.0 or later Flash bit Soundcard and speakers (for online lectures) Video adapter and monitor capable of an 800 x 600 screen size and 256 colors Generally, if your computer can run Internet Explorer 6.0, you can successfully access the Website. It is very important that Netscape and pre-internet Explorer 6.0 browsers be upgraded to meet the minimum requirement, especially if you are an AOL user. Use of America Online (AOL) Internet Explorer 6.0 or later is the recommended browser for students in the program. You may connect to the Internet using AOL, but once connected we recommend switching to Internet Explorer. We do not support AOL browsers because there are so many versions currently available. Several of the older AOL browser versions do not support JavaScript and a few other features that are essential for the Florida Institute of Technology site to run correctly. AOL also uses huge proxy servers to cache pages in an effort to increase speed for its users. Unfortunately, this technique can result in users receiving an old page when new information is actually available to them on the Website. It is possible to access the site with AOL, but you need to use the 32-bit version of AOL software. To determine what version you are currently using, open AOL, click on Help, and then select About America Online. On most AOL browser versions, the bit information is displayed here. If you discover that you 2

7 Florida Tech Online User s Guide for Students are not currently using the 32-bit version, call AOL and they will send you the version you need. Once you are sure you have the correct version of AOL, you can access the site using the following steps. 1. Connect to AOL as you normally do. 2. Minimize AOL. (Click the button in the upper-right corner of the screen.) 3. Open Internet Explorer and access the site. While you are using Internet Explorer, AOL will continue running in the background. AOL periodically checks to see if you are still online and will disconnect you if you are inactive for a certain amount of time. Even if you are actively using Internet Explorer, AOL might disconnect you because it doesn't see the use of the browser as part of AOL. To prevent being disconnected from the Internet, periodically click on something within AOL to keep the connection alive. Note: Many private Internet Service Providers also disconnect inactive users, but for most, browser activity is enough to keep the connection alive. Using the Universal Plug-In and Support CD You should have received a Universal Plug-In and Support CD with your course materials. This CD contains several software utilities that your computer needs to take full advantage of the features built into the Florida Institute of Technology Website. To begin using the software CD, insert it into your computer s CD-ROM drive. An installation screen should appear and allow you to click the link of the application you want to install. If this screen does not appear, you can access it manually. Windows users may use one of the following methods: Open My Computer and right-click on the CD-ROM drive. Select AutoPlay or Open and double-click on RunHTML.exe. Click the Start button on the Windows toolbar, located at the lower left corner of your screen. Select Run. When the Run dialog box appears, make sure that the CD-ROM drive is the selected drive. If the CD-ROM drive does not appear in the Run text box, click the Browse button to select the appropriate drive. Use the Look in: drop-down list in the Browse dialog box to locate the CD-ROM drive. When you have selected the Universal Plug-In & Support Disk in your CD- ROM drive, select RunHTML.exe. Note: It is important that all other applications are closed and any work is saved before installing any of the following components. Some installations require a system restart.

Custom installation is designed for advanced users who wish to customize QuickTime with QuickTime for Java, Quick Draw 3D, or QuickTime diagnostics, for example. 4.

Click Next in the Enter Registration section; a registration number is not applicable. WinZip Installer Zip files are used to compress large files into a format that allows the user to more easily copy or the file from a remote location.
