To make sure if your hardware and memory are up to this next generation operating
system, check out System Requirements
How to enable multilingual features.
Mac OS X 10.1の完全日本語化
Japanese Language Kit (along with other languages) comes with the system. Catch?
You can rest easy if you have G3 or G4 computers. But if you have older computers,
i.e., PowerPC processor and you may not have enough memory to run it. That means
some Performa (4-digit ones) machines are lucky to be able to upgrade but nothing
older.
Step-by-step graphical instruction on how to install Language kit, by Yasuhiro
Omoto sensei from UC Berkeley.
If you don't have JLK already, you are out of luck? Apple and other stores do
not sell JLK anymore. But wait, if you have OS8.5 or 8.6, maybe you can view
Japanese, but not to write. If you have 68030 based chip or later, you can install
old version of Kanji Talk, Japanese system.

An example:
Tip: Open another browser window and copy paste URL from the address/location
bar instead of typing. That will prevent from having wrong URL by typing mistake. 3. -1-1 Specific to learning (maybe not Japanese specific)
Think about your classes and materials you would make. Visit some sites in 4-1,
download some graphics (4-2) and include in your document (4-4). Take some notes
to share with the group along the way. If possible, print out your work and
share with the group. When reporting, please include:
1. Sharing of #3 and #4 from Friday
2. Exploration of online communication tools
(mailing list, TAPPED IN, themed BBS, how to find key pals, WebCT, BlackBoard,
Yahoo courses, Wimba, GroupBoard
3. Discussion of Internet security
4. copyright issues
5. Exploration of existing materials sites
6. Sharing of #5
1. Japanese capability issues
1-1 Making English system computers Japanese capable (both PC and Mac)
In order to take the full benefits of the discussion, please check the operating
system (Windows 98 or Mac OS 8.6, etc.) and version of Microsoft Office of your
school/home computer and lab where you can possibly conduct your class. Questions
are highly encouraged during the presentation. Both Internet and non-internet
issues are welcome.
1-2 Windows-based:
WindowsXP
Windows' latest operating system is blending general consumer-targeted line
(95->98->Me) and professional line (NT-> 2000) and finally, multilingual
capability is built-in. Most recent computers come with XP. How to make Japanese
enabled from the system you bought outside of Japan is quite similar to Windows
2000.

HOWTO: Add and Enable Additional Languages in Windows
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q177561
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/using/itpro/managing/regionalsup.asp
Multilingual capability is there. No more Global IME. You have to make sure
your computer is upgradeable to 2000. Check hardware requirements. After all,
2000 is an NT upgrade and you will have less trouble buying the 2000 system
installed rather than upgrading from 9x. If you have Office 2000 and XP, multilingual
function should work flawlessly. Other software might have backward compatibility
problems. More and more software are compatible with Windows 2000, but sometimes
it doesn't mean everything works in Japanese. You may still need Japanese version
of software (e.g. PhotoShop J) to make fully Japanese capable.

1-3 Apple/Macintosh
Mac OS X
OS "ten" is the latest system that was released in March 2001 and
it is Unix-based. Therefore software needs to be upgraded for this system. You
also need G3 or later with 128MB of physical RAM! The latest is at 10.1.2 and
all new Mac computers come with OSX along with OS9.2 (Classic).

Mac OS 8.x or earlier
http://www.apple.co.jp/ftp-info/reference/kt753.html
Then you can later update to 7.5.5 with this updater.

1-4 Last touch to make you enable Japanese over the Internet
For both platforms,
you may have to play with browser setting. Here are examples with Internet Explorer
and Netscape Navigator.

It is a free online link management tool. It is useful because your students
don't need to type in URL. You can see it from anywhere. You can add information
from anywhere.

3. Using Images in your materials
Visual aids are powerful tools in language learning. Here are ways to take advantage
of graphics from the Internet.
3 -1 Various sites that you can use
1. The Amazing Picture Machine http://www.ncrtec.org/picture.htm
2. Pics4Learning http://pics4learning.com/
3. Pictures for language teaching http://www.langpix.com/
4. MSU CLEAR clipart http://clear.msu.edu/dennie/clipart/
5. UVic's Language Teaching Clipart Library http://web.uvic.ca/hcmc/clipart/
6. The Internet Picture Dictionary http://www.pdictionary.com/
3. -1-2 Specific to Japanese
1. AV Resource Database for Japanese Language Instruction http://tell.fll.purdue.edu/jphotos/
2. Image Database for Instructors of Japanese
http://www.iac.gatech.edu/modlangs/Resources/Japanese/CONJUGATE/
3. Ujie sensei's Audio Visual Center http://www.wlu.edu/~kujie/slide.html
4. NihongoWeb: Picture Gallery of Japan http://www.viewedo.com/~nihongoweb/
5. Thumb Nail: Graphics for teaching Japanese http://castelj.soken.ac.jp/groups/thumb_nail/
6. Cultural communication by photos http://202.245.103.41/kenshu/sozai/photo.htm

http://databank.tjf.or.jp/intro_e.html
8. Elementary school pictures in Japan http://www.geocities.com/pto_gwn/jpn_ele/
9. Photo Gallery "SHIKISAIKAN" http://www.shikisaikan.com/
10. Kenkichi's Photo Gallery http://www.din.or.jp/~kaokao/ken/index-e.htm

12. Mangekyou http://www.media.ne.jp/web/kaleido/index-e2.html
3-1-3 Search Engine Image search
3-1-3-1 Google
http://images.google.com/
3-1-3-2 AltaVista
http://www.altavista.com/sites/search/simage
3-1-3-3 Google Japan Image Search
http://www.google.co.jp/imghp
3-2 How do I download graphics on the Internet?
Usually hold the mouse on the graphic and drag it out to the browser window
will make you download on the desktop. If not, hold the mouse on the image (Mac)
and right click (Windows) will bring up a small menu. Choose "Save this Image
as" or "Download this Image to Disk" and specify where you want to save.
3-3 Resolutions in Graphics
Have you printed a web page and ended up having a very poor quality and got
disappointed? Usually graphics on the Internet are set for computer resolution
and considered fastest download possible. That means standard is to have 72
dpi (dots per inch). However in print materials, human eyes can tell finer detail.
Print materials are set at least 300 dpi. That is why some sites prepare multiple
versions of resolution. Usually resizing smaller works OK, but enlarging will
stretch the graphic and usually ends up in undesirable result.
3-4 How do I include those images in my handouts?
Various word processors will let you include graphics in your document. Most
of the time, it is "Insert" command and then you can manipulate using graphic
tools. Good thing to know in Word is Format-> Picture-> Colors and Lines->
Fill, No fill and no lines. Same thing can be done with Textbox.
3-5 How do I project in class?
If you can hook up your computer to a projector to show the whole class, that
would be nice. If you have an overhead projector, you can also print to overhead
transparent for inkjet and laser. (Those are rather expensive.) If you want
to write something on the transparency later, you have to print mirror image
and use the backside for adding comments with pen. (Otherwise you can't erase
the pen later.) Normally you can specify to print flip image from printer dialog.
3-6 Hands on Materials making exercise
1. What did you want to make?
2. Which site/page did you go?
3. Are you happy with your work? If not, what would you have done differently?

The worm exploits vulnerability in Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Express in
an attempt to execute itself when you open or even preview the message.
To turn off Preview:
Outlook: View and Click "Preview Pane"
Outlook Express: View-> Layout and uncheck "Show Preview Pane"
Patch is available at
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS01-020.asp
3-2-2 Recent email virus/hoax: sulfnbk.exe; Hoax
The email body goes like this:
"I just found out about this virus which is easily removed I got this virus,
and chances are you have it too, since you're all in my address book. It lies
dormant for 14 days, then kills your hard drive. Here's how to stop it. If you've
got it, send this to everyone in your address book.
The directions for removing it are easy.
1. Go to 'start' - then to 'find or search' (depending on your computer)
2. In the 'search for files or folders' type in sulfnbk.exe -- this is the virus.
3. In the 'look in' make sure you're searching Drive C.
4. Hit 'search' button (or find)
5. If this file shows up (it's an ugly blackish icon that will have the name
sulfnbk.exe') DO NOT OPEN IT
6. Right click on the file - go down to delete and left click.
7. You will be told this is a program file and removing it will cause problems.
A lie. It will ask you if you want to send it to the recycle bin, say yes.
8. Go to your desktop (where all your icons are) and double click on the recycle
bin.
9. Right click on sulfnbk.exe and delete again -or empty the bin.
If you find it send this email to everyone in your address book, because that's
how it's transferred.
Many apologies."
This hoax warns against a virus contained in a file called SULFNBK.EXE, that
arrives hidden in an email message. SULFNBK.EXE is a Windows System file that
is installed in the Windows Command folder when the Windows Operating System
is installed. Therefore, the presence of this file does not necessarily mean
a system is infected.
3-2-3 Trustful resources
Before your send your warning to your friends and colleagues, check with these
sources to see if it is legitimate.

3-2-4 What to do?
Keiko's Rule of thumb
1) When you receive an attachment from EVEN somebody you know, you have to be
careful. Because virus often spreads itself by mostly using MS Outlook's address
book. Don't open your attachment unless you know absolutely sure what it is
for!
2) You have to be careful with .exe and .vb extensions. Recently the file looks
disguised, but often have .pif, .src extensions came with SirCam. Also .doc
MS Word can contain Macro that can be programmed. So unfortunately we have to
be suspicious.

Let's talk about these cases. Are we violating copyright laws? 1. My school can't afford to buy more supplemental books, so I photocopied for everybody. 2. I found a good anime video in a local rental store, so I borrowed it and showed it in class. 3. I found a good article on the Internet on how to make Windows computers Japanese capable. I copied it and published on my class web page. 4. In order to spice up my links section on my class web page, I took the graphics out of those that I am linking and put that up in my class web page. |
When using materials off the Internet, read copyright, terms of use notices. When in doubt, write to the developer/administrator of the site and also somebody from your school. Publishing in print or on the Internet as yours especially needs to be careful.
