When you 'Jump to Dashboard', a new window will open called 'Browser Test'. Please go through each step as it will maximize your experience by ensuring you have the necessary components. For example, you must have Java to launch the WorldWideWhiteboard™. If you have already completed the Browser Test from your current machine, you may click the Close button and return to the Dashboard.
Tutors:
If you would like to Upload Microsoft Office Documents to the whiteboard, you must install a plugin. Upon launching the whiteboard, you will be prompted to install the plugin if you do not already have it installed. If you do not see the download prompt, make sure you have Active X enabled. Enabling Active X is different for every Browser, but consulting the Help menu will provide you with that information.
