Caring for Our People Training

INTRODUCTION TO COPT WEBSITE & CD-ROM

Caring for Our People Training (COPT) is a project that uses computer-based training for staff and families working with people with disabilities and health care needs. This page will explain how to use our CD or website.

HOW TO USE THESE PAGES--

If you are using the COPT webpages you are either on the Internet or using a CD-ROM. Most things work pretty much the same whichever one you use. If you are not at all used to computers, the information below will help you.

Hopping around on the page:

To go BACK to a page, click on the back arrow that you see at the top of the computer on the left side.

Click on the arrow at the top of the window and it will take you to the page where you were before this one. If this is the first page you looked at, clicking on the back arrow won't do anything, because you weren't at a page before this one.

Clicking on the arrow at the top of the window pointing to the right will take you to the page where you were after this one. If you didn't go to any pages after you looked at this one, clicking on the forward arrow won't do anything.

Try this now -- click on the left arrow and then on the right arrow AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE. Clicking on the left and right arrows just above this sentence won't get you anywhere.

If you did that, clicked on the left arrow (to go to the page you were first) and then the right arrow (to go to the page where you were next) you should have ended up right back here. If you didn't, well, I guess you are lost and we can't help you. Try it again. Click on the left arrow and then on the right. An easily amused person could do this all day.

Whenever text on these pages is highlighted in blue, if you click on it, it will take you to a different page. This is called a LINK. Try clicking on the next sentence to go to the first page on "What is a Disability?"

Click here to go to the "What is a Disability?" page.

then use the left arrow at the top of the page to come back here.

You can use the right, left, up and down arrow keys on your keyboard to move around on the page. Try it now.

You can also use the mouse to move the arrow you see on the computer up and down the page.
