How to print:

1.     Just select “Print” at the web site.  However, the spacing may end up a bit “wonky.”  You might prefer to do the following and, indeed, you’ll have to do the following if there are exercises printed at the site so that you can double-space them.

2.     While viewing the web page, highlight the portions to be printed.  If you want to print everything, just go to “Edit” and choose “Select All” and “Copy.” You can also copy by holding down “Control” and “C” at the same time.

3.     Minimize the web page by clicking the box with a little line at the bottom of it in the upper right corner of the screen.

4.     Open a Word document.

5.     Click on “Edit” and select “Paste.”  You can also paste by holding down “Control” and “V” at the same time.

6.     Now the material is in Word, and you can do whatever you like with the spacing!

Note:

This information was, to my best knowledge, correct and complete at the time the syllabus was distributed. However, this syllabus is not to be considered a contract between WNCC and/or the instructor and any student. The instructor reserves the right, acting within the policies and procedures of WNCC, to make changes in course content or instructional techniques without further notice or obligation.
