but I have been unable to find any documentation that explains how to actually produce the second bullet point mentioned above. Does anyone know how to do this and can provide instructions?<br/> Zoo Tycoon 2tag:www.classroom20.com,2009-12-03:649749:Topic:4148002009-12-03T17:05:49.181ZMegan Siemenshttps://www.classroom20.com/profile/MeganSiemens
Have any of you used this with high school students in teaching about biomes? How did it work out for you?

In addition to the college courses I teach, I also provide some basic computer literacy training for job seekers, many of whom have little or no computer skills.

In addition to the college courses I teach, I also provide some basic computer literacy training for job seekers, many of whom have little or no computer skills. Although I do teach students how to use email (using a free Yahoo! account) I've been asked about the possibility of teaching Microsoft Outlook because many employers want job candidates to have this experience already. However, none of these students will have access to the organization's Outlook mail system (due to confidentiality issues, etc.). I'm reluctant to show them how to integrate their personal email accounts into Outlook using public computers in the lab -- too many potential problems, not the least of which being that they may somehow wipe out their existing mail and many don't even have an email account to begin with!<br />

Does anyone know of any Outlook simulations that might exist for practice/training purposes? I've found some videos, but they are usually for specific tasks and don't really have a good teaching flow. I'd be interested in hearing from anyone who has been in a similar situation and how you resolved it! Thanks!
