New Users: Set up your Mac for Success!

.Before we can begin learning to use programs in Graphic Design, Photography, Digitial Design and Animation, or AP Studio Art you will need to set up your new user workspace.

Each period will have it's own login and students should use the same machine for the entire semester. Please select a workstation that works best for you. Be mindful of where you are located in the room. If you learn best from watching live demonstrations I recommend sitting closest to the screen. 

Follow each of the slide shows below in order from left to right. Make sure you follow each step.
