SANAKO Study 700 TUTOR GUIDE - Introduction

TUTOR GUIDE:

Introduction SANAKO Study 700 is a pure software solution that allows you to carry out a range of pedagogical activities using a number of different media. It provides a platform from which a Tutor can distribute a whole number of resources that will enhance the learning experience. Coupled with in-built classroom management facilities, it is possible to control, maintain and improve your working environment. In addition, there are several add-on modules available to further develop both IT and language skills. This Tutor Guide is designed to give the reader a helpful insight on how to use SANAKO Study 700. It follows an effective philosophy of ‘Why would you want to use the … feature/activity?’, with pedagogical examples, and then ‘How to Use…’ with a practical, step-by-step approach using images taken from SANAKO Study 700 to aid understanding and use. Each page has an overall view (top left) highlighting the area where the Tutor/Student will be focussing on, followed by more detailed ‘close up’ images with instructions.

When doing the two tutor-led activities (in their basic form), it is a good idea to break them down in to 7 simple steps going from the top of the Tutor GUI on the left hand side;

1. Who is doing the activity (select students - Grouping/Preparing the session)? 2. What are they going to do (Activity Selection)? 3. Are they going to listen to anything (Media Source Selection)? 4. Additional options - How are they going to be arranged, what are you recording etc? 5. Start the activity 6. End the activity 7. Clear the session

At your fingertips, you also have access to the Online Help within the SANAKO Study 700 interface (both student & tutor), the SANAKO Virtual Educational Community @ http://members.sanako.com (also accessible from the SANAKO Study 700 tutor interface) and a range of Support Contracts (see address below) for thorough, detailed information and assistance. Nb: The pictures shown are taken from various versions. Therefore, your layout & features may differ slightly if you are operating an older/newer version, or you have different modules.



SANAKO Study 700 TUTOR GUIDE - Getting Started

TUTOR GUIDE:

Getting Started - Opening the Study Tutor

The SANAKO Study solution is no different from any other software application e.g. MS Word in so much as you must launch the program

To do this;

• Double click on the Tutor shortcut on the Desktop (if applicable) • Alternatively, go to; Start, All Programs, SANAKO Study 700, Tutor

• In addition, you may have an icon in your quick launch area • Study will run and, depending on your setup, you will see the screen below

(The Tutor and class selection window will only display if Tutor login is requested at start up in the preferences)

• If the Tutor and class selection window appears, select your name from the list if a file has already been

created/previously saved and click OK • The student positions will now appear in the appropriate classroom layout or alternatively, you can click

Show corridor to add students • If Tutor login is not requested at start up, you will go in to the default classroom layout




Getting Started (continued) – The Tutor GUI (Graphical User Interface) Explained

The Tutor GUI is split in to two defined areas – the classroom ‘layout’ on the right and the features/activities on the left.

Add students to a session A:F = Available sessions (you can have more than 1 session at any 1 time!)

Choose an activity from the drop-down

menu

SANAKO Study 700 TUTOR GUIDE - Grouping/Preparing the Session

TUTOR GUIDE:

Grouping/Preparing the Session

By default, the students will be in Session A (unless saved otherwise).

Why use different sessions/put students in to different sessions? • To differentiate within a class • To give students different work/activities/tasks to each other - have multiple activities going on in a session • To manage the class • To match students of equal ability • To group students of differing ability to help improve grades e.g. lower with higher ability students

You can add students to a session in 3 ways;

1 • Right-hand mouse click on a student position • 'Move to Session' • Choose a session from A-F • Click the Session tabs A-F to work with the chosen

students 2

• Choose the session you'd like to work with from the tabs A-F

• In the 'Select Members for The Session' area click on 'Add'

• Holding the left-hand mouse button down, highlight/drag over the students you want to add or click on individuals

• Students will then be part of the chosen session

3 • Choose the session you'd like to work

with from the tabs A-F • In the 'Select Members for The Session'

area click on 'Add' • Click on students sporadically • ‘Add’ to Finish



SANAKO Study 700 TUTOR GUIDE – Media Sources

TUTOR GUIDE:

Media Sources: Why choose a Media Source?

• To give students relevant material to listen to • To support/reinforce an exercise or activity • To vary the teaching methods/media used

There are several Media Sources available to the Tutor, which can be played out to the student positions. In addition, subject to the activity, you may opt to have no source (None). *Note you may have additional sources depending on your version and setup. Sources available in the ‘Media Source Selection’ drop-down box are:

• Tutor (your voice going through the Tutor’s headset)

• Student (what is being played/recorded on a chosen Student position – click on the student you want)

• File (an audio/visual file (sound only) taken from a network area)

• External source (a device plugged in to a

port/interface on the Tutor PC)

SANAKO Study 700 TUTOR GUIDE – Self-Access

TUTOR GUIDE:

Self-Access* *By default, the students will be in Self-Access mode

Why use/leave students in Self-Access mode? • Give students 'play lists'/choices of files to work through • Allow students to work on a variety of different file types (not just Audio/Visual) at their own pace • Allow students to take files away to work on later

Note – Self Access doesn’t follow the 7 steps as it is primarily a ‘student-led’ activity
