Normal Browsing (Point and Click)

• Navigating the Accreditation Report
  
  The most basic way to navigate is to start on the home page, which is an outline of the Institutional Report. Click on a hyperlink to read a section of the report. As you read each section, click on hyperlinks within for additional information or evidence. Then click the back button until you return to the home page.

• Getting back to the Home Page of the Report
  
  All major parts of the Institutional Report have the same header and footer. On these pages, you can always click on "IU NCATE Home" or "Accreditation Report 2002" at the top:
  
  
  
  Or at the bottom, "Home: Accreditation Report 2002"
  
  
  Please Note: Some of the Web documents to which the Report links are in Portable Document Format (PDF). Your Web browser must have the Acrobat Reader plug-in installed in order to view them. These PDF files will look identical to the word-processed or scanned documents from which they were converted. These PDF documents will not have the same format as the Institutional Report, so you need to click your back button to return to the Report, and then click one of the above links to return to the home page of the Report.

  In Acrobat Reader, some of the documents may first appear to have very small fonts.  You can magnify these documents by using the Acrobat 'zoom' function.  Also, you can rotate pages in Acrobat if they are vertical when they need to be horizontal.

  You can also click on "IU NCATE Site Map" on any of these pages. The Site Map provides a detailed Table of Contents for the Institutional Report:
  
  
  
  
  
• Viewing the Alphabetical Index
  
  On the Site Map page, there is also a link to the Alphabetical Index. This is similar to an index in the back of a book, which lists all the major pages in alphabetical order.

Searching Electronically (by keywords -- on the Web only)

• Searching the Accreditation Report
  
  You can search electronically by keywords. Just click on "IU NCATE Search" at the top of any of the main pages:
  
  
  The search page will allow you to browse the Table of Contents, Alphabetical Index, Faculty Vita and to type keywords for electronic searching. Results will be ranked according to the best matches to your keywords, as is the case for Web search engines.
  
  
  
  At the bottom of the Search Page, you can click on links to search the Web sites for the Bloomington Campus or the Indianapolis Campus of the School of Education. These searches will include all the Web pages, respectively, on these two sites.
  
  Please Note: If your computer is not connected to the Internet, and you are using the CD-ROM version of the Report, then you will not be able to perform the Web search of the Report.
