Compositions, Graded Items
Since this IS an advanced course, It is
REQUIRED that
work handed in for a grade shall be typed.
(You would not dream of handing in handwritten
documents in other
courses; this shall be the same case here.) All computers are loaded
with
Cyrillic fonts in the UVM Language Resource
Center.
Additionally, this web site contains links to download needed
fonts, printer drivers and keyboards for your own computer (see below).
Compositions
shall be sent over the Internet as attached files. I shall make
notations for your correction, return the
file to you, and place a second grade for the corrected work on the
spread sheet after I examine your second draft..
Setting
up Cyrillic on your computer
For WINDOWS
If
you are using XP or VISTA, go to
>SETTINGS, >CONTROL PANEL, >REGIONAL and LANGUAGE
OPTIONS. In the drop-down menu go
to >LANGUAGE and click
DETAILS. Click >ADD. In the language list find >RUSSIAN and
click >OK. When the panel closes, click
OK again. You
have Cyrillic using the Russian keyboard. The screen TRAY
will now show an EN or RU.
Change the language by clicking in the tray or toggle with SHIFT +
ALT. Download the ASDF PHONETIC
keyboard @ http://tlt.its.psu.edu/suggestions/international/bylanguage/russian.html
Clear
directions are given on this page.
Although MAC information is
listed
below, the bottom of this page also contains information for phonetic
keyboards in the MAC
operating system.
The following
web site contains down loadable fonts and keyboard drivers if you are
using something other than XP.
There
are
TWO standard Russian keyboards. I recommend neither, but rather
the
so-called "phonetic" or "homophonic"
keyboard. In this
layout, most
Russian letters are found where their English equivalents would
be.
This speeds typing.
