Wednesday April 6th

I have meetings with two residents today. I arrived for my first appointment and met him in his room. Today his goal was to work out how to print out labels. He had previously told me that he wanted to focus on this for this appointment so I went ahead and found a how-to guide on how to print out labels for him. The article was quite detailed and I had the link prepared for him when I arrived. We opened up the link and he followed the instructions perfectly and he had it working in about 20 minutes. To ensure that everything was done properly we tested the printouts on regular paper. The first time the labels printed out in portrait as opposed to landscape so after a minor adjustment we got it working the way that he wanted. After we completed this he informed me that he had no other questions and since he knew that I had other appointments that day he told me that I should go and work with other residents. So we parted ways and he said that he would write down and email me any questions that he may have for our next appointment for next Wednesday.
    I arrived slightly early for my next appointment but the resident informed me that my timing was great and she was ready to work with me. Today our goal was to ensure that her GMail account was set up properly and to set up a blog for her. So we got her GMail account working in no time, and after that we set up her Blog. She was very excited about this and wanted to know how to link all of her FlickR, Twitter and Blog together. So I informed her that this was possible and that all she needed to do was know the links of each networking tool and post them all on each other. After we finished setting up the Blog we were out of time but we agreed to meet again the following Wednesday.
