Internet and software requirements:  To view the video files via the Web you must have a broadband or high speed Internet connection such as DSL, a corporate LAN, or a cable modem. 

You must also have the latest version of Windows Media Player software installed on your computer.  Windows Media Player is free. Download here  for either Windows or Macintosh.

To ensure successful viewing it is also recommended that you make sure your Web browser software is up to date.  The latest version of Internet Explorer can be downloaded for Windows or Macintosh.

To view streaming video:  Once you have determined that all hardware and software requirements are met, please click on “button “ to view the video. The video files are large and may take some time to begin playing.  If you experience delays of more than 10 to 15 minutes, please try again later.  Long delays are due to heavy network traffic. 

 The video will be approximately one quarter the size of your computer screen. Please read “Internet and software requirements” below to make sure you have the necessary software to play the video.

To download a video file:  Click on “download” to download the video to your computer.  Select “Save” to download the file (you may have to right click and select “select target as”).  Some students find that they can download the video even if they have trouble viewing it as described above.
