What
do I need to use this Web Site? |
| |
Setting
up your computer
Modalities
for Increasing Sustainable Development Awareness is a Site designed
for minimum hardware and software requirements. Any hardware capable
of running a version 3.0 browser should be able to adequately support
access to the materials. Although designed for a Windows 95 operating
system, the programme will also run on a Macintosh Power PC system.
Any browser - like Netscape or Internet Explorer - can view the
Site.

General
requirements from your computer |
| |
A
Pentium 100 MHz MMX computer 16 Mb RAM; SVGA monitor, capable of 800x600
resolution in 16-bit true color, modem or network card; and a 1.44
Mb Floppy Drive and/or 16x CD-ROM (if these are to be used). If your
computer does not meet these requirements, it is highly probable that
the Web Site can still be viewed. If your connection to the Internet
is through a modem with 14.4 or 28.8 kbps (the size of a standard
telephone line), then it will mean that downloading pages may take
some time. However, we have endeavoured to reduce the numbers of images
so that downloading times are faster. |

What
programs do I need to have installed? |
| |
Other
than a browser and Internet connection, you do not need any additional
or "plug-in" programs installed to view this Site. |
| |
|
|
|
Where
do I start? |
| |
- Start by
clicking on any of the Sections of the module.
- The left
navigation bar is present throughout the entire program. You can
use this to move between the themes (sections) by clicking on
any of the names in the bar.
- The top navigation
bar also provides links to ESCAP's Virtual Conference site with
all documentation available.
|
|
|
Home
- a shortcut back to the front page of the program.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ESCAP
- you can go to their web sites by clicking on the top bar.
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
Site
Map - there is a Site Map for the whole site, as well as Parts
within the module.
|
|
|
|
|
|
How
do I find my way around?
|
|
|
- Once you
click on a Section name in the side bar or on the front page,
you will notice a banner appear on the page with the topics covered
in each part.
- This will
enable you to quickly navigate between topics without needing
to return to the front page.
- At the top
of each page, there is a "page trailer" that shows you
where you are, and how you can get around. It looks like this:
Home > Getting Started >
Computer Talk
- At the bottom
of each page, there is a Next button that will take you to the
next page.
|
|
|
How
does it work? |
|
|
- First of
all, the module is made up of Sections.
- Each Section
is a series of HTML pages that lead you through information on
the topics contained in the Section.
- While it
varies, each Topic contains
- Information
- Supplementary
Links and Resources
- Lessons
from the Region
- Good
Practice Examples
- Illustrations
if applicable
|
|
|
What
happens when I go to another Web Site? |
|
|
- Web Sites
and Web Pages outside of the main program launch in a new browser
window.
- This makes them easy to read and explore but you cannot
use the browser's "back" navigation to return
to this Web Site. This is because there is more than 1 browser
window open.
- Close the
window when you have finished exploring the Web Site or move between
screens using the ALT and TAB keys on the keyboard. .
