How to Use the CD
1. Insert CD
2. Double-click on ‘Index.html’
This should bring you to the home
page for COPT
Notes on Design
• Every topic has both a ‘quick tips’ section
and extensive information to accommodate
differences in literacy - and spare time.
• The website is redundant. That is, a person
can link to the family involvement section
from the index page or staff page.
• This repetition was done on purpose to make
the CD and website easier to use.
If you don’t have a CD
1. Open the web browser (Netscape,
Explorer or whatever you use).
2. Type in the following web address:

written above.)
