Quick Start Guide& New 2010 Tech Support for Students

You may need some time to adapt to the website or explore the many materials we have on the website. However, I don't want you to have to wait to use the program. Here are some quick start tips you can use to get started right away:

1. Go to your Homeroom and your Study Group. If you can't get to these right away please e-mail me and I will e-mail you your files while we work on some tech support.

2. Download (or receive by e-mail) your main course material E-book.

3. Print out this E-book or send it to Kinkos or Officemax to get printed. If you have it professionally printed it usually costs between $15.00 and $30.00 and includes binding (depending on the course). You can upload online and then have them send it to you or pick it up at the store.

As you start using the materials you will start to have questions and may then want to explore some of the videos, reference files, guides, student extras, FAQs and other resources that are available on the student website. If you have the time, I recommend that you at least skim those materials before you start. However, if you are looking for a quick way to start all you need to do is follow the five steps above.

If you have any trouble please fill out the tech support form at:
http://naturopathichealing.weebly.com/techsupport.html

This e-mail has now been added to the FAQs section of the website and the student BLOG so you can easily find it again in the future.

Password Problems?

Dear Students,

The system I am using to password protect my pages has changed and made itself more secure and added features. I tested it myself to make sure it still works. It still functions the same. However, now, when you enter your username and password it will bring up another screen that asks for it again. Other pages only have a button with "login" now and no username and password blank until you have clicked the login button.

You will use the SAME username and password as you have always been using. You can find this in the following three places:

1. Your welcome letter
2. The FILES section of your group

If you are having any trouble with the new system please tell me.

Blessings & Health,
Kristie

Questions for 203: 3, 4 and 5?

Dear Students,

A student wrote to me last week and asked for the quizzes/assignments for 203:3, 4 and 5.

Keep in mind that not all the chapters in each unit have an assignment. For this particular unit there is only one assignment and these chapters do not have assignments.

Please be sure to check the index of each unit to see if there are assignments listed or additional information. You can also check this BLOG for information on chapters that may have errors or new links or tips.

Blessings & Health,

TECH SUPPORT: Broken Links for Nutritional Healing

Although we just updated the E-book for Nutritional Healing only two months ago it seems that a couple of the links are already "broken". They are the "Cooking for the Humors" link on page 45 and the link to Culpeper's Herbal on page 45. I am still looking for the replacement for the 'Cooking for the Humors". The new link for Culpeper's Herbal is:

I will also be uploading this to the site and the Yahoogroups so you do not have to worry about the link breaking again. You will have the book in E-book format.
