science+shorts+signup+instructions

Step 1: Sign up for moodle
The first thing you'll need is an account for Moodle. (Another account?! Nooo!) If you were enrolled in a different Moodle class, you already have a Moodle account, and you can skip this step.
 * 1) Go to http://beta.globalclassroom.us/login/signup.php
 * 2) Use the username and password you’ve already been using, as well as your school Gmail account to sign up for Global Classroom.
 * 3) Once you finish registering, you’ll get an email to confirm your account. Go ahead and follow the link in the email.

Step 2: Enroll in Science Shorts
Go to the following address: http://beta.globalclassroom.us/course/view.php?id=1582

You will need an enrollment key to sign up for this course. If you have an account with globalClassroom and are logged in you should see something this.



__**The Enrollment key is "benzene"**__. Type "benzene" without the quotes into the box and click "Enroll me in this course". You will then be taken to the class site.

If the key doesn't work for you or you run into some other problem let me know. My email is matt.nupen [at symbol] sobrietyhigh.org

Step 3:
Congratulations! Do a little victory lap with your mouse. I'm not being too sarcastic here, technology can be a real pain sometimes. A lot can go wrong in the previous 2 steps. It reminds me of a quote from my favorite author, Edward Abbey. "//High technology has done us one great service: It has retaught us the delight of performing simple and primordial tasks - chopping wood, building a fire, drawing water from a spring.//"

Now that you’re enrolled in the course please complete the pre-assignment. It shouldn’t take you too long, I hope!
