It is super fun!

Once you get in, click on the button that says "Create an Animation" and it will show you a tutorial on how to use the program.

Internet Explorer and Launchpad

It has come to my attention that Internet Explorer is not compatible with Launchpad.

Some of the issues students have encountered with Internet Explorer are:

* student answers that contain raw html code.
* missing functions in the students' text editor toolbar.
* disappearing student answers when the worksheet is submitted.
* start and end times indicated in the Quiz/Test Overview but no blue dot or student answers to indicate completed work.

Please use the most updated version of either Firefox or Chrome instead. Thanks!
