Customize Firefox for Computer Lab:
Description: Firefox is the key application in my computer enabled classroom. Also, it is the key source of student distraction! There are few customizations that are most important:
- lock down the following choices in preferences:
- The,'save files to' in the main tab
- May need to lock down add-ons-- but only if it becomes a problem
- The entire application tab
- The entire privacy tab so student cannot delete his or her history
- The entire advanced tab
- The entire security tab
Procedure:
Here's a link to a Firefox 3 addon to do those things needed--http://www.kaply.com/weblog/2009/01/16/cck-wizard-12-finally-available/
