is the login screen. You must be registered to use the SIA toolset. If you
would like to be registered or have your students registered, please contact
Joyce.Morris@uvm.edu You will have access to more resources if you are a registered user and any work you submit will be saved to the system. |

name. I have assigned all of you a password that I will give you in
class. These are NOT case sensitive and there is a space between your first and last name. |

to all members of SIA. We are going to the special tools for UVM page. On the left menu is a folder, School Directories. Select this and on the right you will see a list of school categories. Click on the Triangle to expand a list. Select the link for the University of Vermont. This will bring you to another login page. Just click registered user and you will enter UVM's site on SIA. |

course. More applications will be coming shortly and I will advise
all when they are available. |

| 5. Talk@School is meant for discussions within UVM
but please let me know if you are interested in setting up discussion with
your students and the greater educational community in Vermont. |
