Use of AlphaChum, AlphaHelp, AlphaRoute, AlphaBooks. Alphachat (responses)
Planning to do Alpharoute
Started using Alphachum
Intend to use library
Internet is not hooked up yet
No time to learn to use it or to do it
Use all - love it!! Alphachat, Alpharoute, Alphabooks - mini-collection
Library - drop in; Nancy Cooper; helpline; LBS tech support
Alpharoute, walk-in library; Alphachat
Alphachat - LBS info; training; library - mini collection (some of material is old)
Alphachum; Alphaheip; Alphacat
Website - interactive, computer basics (www.gcflearnfree.org)
No don’t use
Library; No time for discussions /not secure
Use discussions & email; use IMS & demonstrations training. Route is neat but time consuming (no time to use it).
Yes - use Alphacom, mini-library, Alphachat. Cannot do Alpharoute if cannot guarantee 10 people; Alphaplus books
take a long time to come - they also throw in materials didn’t ask for; a pain to set up Alphachats.
Yes - only use website resources (under the library); need to be taught how to use Alpharoute;
cartoons are insulting to an adult learner; Alpha is not user friendly.
