In my classes I use the computer and a projector to place many sentences that are used in the class up for all to see, and then view at home--no need to write the notes yourself.  I call it the "ciberpizarra" or cyberblackboard. 

At the beginning of each semester, the content placed here comes from last year's class.  New pages will be added, and sometimes content from old pages will be placed into the new.  

Learning the organizational system I use for this site will help you go directly to the desired ciberpizarra quickly after class from any computer. 

Memorize my base URL:  www.mctc.mnscu.edu/~witwerda/

Then you can access your ciberpizarra using this formula:

SPAN 1000 Beginning Spanish I--add to the base url: 10blackboard

SPAN 1100 Beginning Spanish II--add to the base url: 11blackboard

SPAN 2000 Intermediate Spanish I--add to the base url: 20blackboard

SPAN 2100 Intermediate Spanish II--add to the base url: 21blackboard

To access other course specific material, use the same numbering system, and these tags to the base url:   span10    span11   span20   span21

To access the grammar tutorials, add the tag:  grammar

To access the vocabulary lists (mostly for 2nd year, because the 2nd year text doesn't provide convenient, compiled vocab lists like the 1st year book)  add the tag:   vocab

By setting the system up like this, it's easy to type quick URL's in so you can avoid downloading unnecessary pages that lead to that page, and you can remember it easier for use at any computer with internet access.
