__**Downloading & Saving Videos:**__ ~When downloading videos there are some important things that need to be thought about with this~
 * 1) PROS~
 * 2) When downloaded you can transfer the videos to a thumb drive and play on different computers
 * 3) Plays seemlessly
 * 4) Better quality.
 * 5) CONS~
 * 6) When downloaded it slows down the server CONSIDERABLY.
 * 7) When downloaded through wireless connection it will take longer than with CAT-5 cable connection.

__**Saving videos on your Learn360 accounts:**__
 * ~To help solve this problem I have created a folder (LEARN360) in SHARED TEACHER Folder on the server. This will help us, as a staff, to limit the repeated downloads of the same videos over and over which will slow down our school server more than it already is.

__**Student assignments and accounts:**__
 * Students can have access to Learn360 with their own user account.
 * You can give students assignments, quizzes, links, with a calendar and more.
 * This will be done on a class-by-class basis because I will upload the students manually for each class and teacher who will use this feature.
 * It will be the responsibility of the classroom teacher to learn more about this feature on their own time because it is not required by any teacher.

__**Previewing Learn360 at home:**__
 * By default the video player is set as Quick Time. If you are having trouble viewing videos at home you will need to change your viewing setting. At the bottom of your video screen you have the option of Flash and Windows Media Player. Choose one of the two options by clicking on the picture icon (either Flash or WMP). This should solve the problem and allow for you to view videos on a PC at home.

__**Workshop Assignment:**__
 * Search for videos that will align with one of your lessons.
 * Save it to your favorites folder, bookmark the link, and/or write down the link to visit it.
