Class Photo Generation Procedure

If I am to have any chance of learning all the names of everyone in all my classes, I need to make photo sheets of the class.

To help me do that, please do the following

  • On a Mac, open the program Photo Booth. Use Photo Booth so that the images I receive are all the same size.
  • Look at the top middle of the screen (the camera is typically a green dot)
  • Press the red Camera icon
  • Repeat this procedure until you like the picture that’s taken
  • Drag the picture to the Desktop
  • Rename the picture with this exact naming convention:last name DASH first name DASH student number.jpg
    example: McMillan-Kevin-096486868.jpg

Once you’ve done that, please put the file in a folder called photo and then hand it in to our class handin folder on studentshare.

To connect to the handin folders for any course from the Mac, do the following

  • click on the desktop
  • go to the GO menu at the top of the screen and choose Connect to Server
  • in the connection dialog box that comes up, type studentshare
  • press the Connect button
  • when asked to select a volume, choose myshare then click OK
  • enter your login id and password when prompted
  • if the server folder doesn’t open, go File < New Finder Window. In the sidebar, click on studentshare
  • open the Semester folder
  • open the folder for whatever course you’re in
  • open the Hand-In Materials Folder
  • open the folder with your name on it
  • finally, drag the photo folder into the folder with your name
