Learning DEScribe Session 2 - Download and Install
Submitted by jmanley on Fri, 08/14/2009 - 15:15Today, I came to the MAFLT website via the WiFi link at a local coffee shop. Once at the site I did not login as administrator. Instead, I viewed it as “the public” would see it. I wanted to confirm your experience of downloading and installing DEScribe without any special insider tricks. I navigated to the DEScribe page via the Products tab then clicked on the DEScribe link. By the way, the correct pronunciation is “D - E - Scribe” which includes word play for “DE” as a moniker for Distance Education and “Scribe” as an ancient writer.
I clicked first on the “Training Materials” link and got a surprise - the site asked me for another user name and password. After a couple of quick back-and-forths I read the text below the links to discover instructions that included the required codes. At this point I doffed my outside user hat, logged in as the administrator and edited the instructions. Now, it’s clear before clicking the links that registration is required.
