Link: Part 1
Hey TECHS students! Here's the second half of chapter 53: Javascript. There aren't any videos in this part as I'm wanting to clean them up and make them a bit easier. But here's the source files used as you'll see in the video on myelearning.org. These videos assume you've already been through the first half of the chapter, and are a continuation of how to use javascript in an HTML document.
There are currently three videos in the second half of this chapter:
- Functions 9:40
- Parameters 8:30
- Events 8:05
You may download the initial document as it appears at the beginning of the first video to get started. You may also download each document as it appears at the end of each video and test them out on your own!
For more info and training on JavaScript, visit http://www.w3schools.com/JS/. You will find plenty of easy and straight-forward examples of functionality in JavaScript, with an easy-to-find index and even a how-to page for each that allows you to test changes to their example code! If you want to read some more, start at Wikipedia's JavaScript page.
If you have any questions, drop us a comment below--we'd love to hear from you! Happy JavaScripting! :)

ODIE (Open Door Information Exchange) is a
comprehensive data warehouse that allows users to track information related to themselves and their school districts. Released in the fall of 2002, ODIE has since grown to manage all communication between ESU 10's Network and Information Services department and the school districts we serve. Information in ODIE falls under the following categories:
Accounts
ODIE manages the accounts of teachers and the school districts and buildings at which they are located. ODIE also manages the contracts between ESU 10 and the school districts we serve, as well as the billing statements that are created each month from the Network and Information Services department.
Helpdesk
ODIE allows teachers to request assistance with technological problems from their school district's Lan-Manager. ODIE also manages the issues for which the Lan-Managers request help from ESU 10's helpdesk. Each helpdesk ticket has a requesting account and building from which they come, a problem type to allow for easier searching, and the possibility of being associated with computers and other network devices. The helpdesk also includes standard solutions, which are documented problems and solutions that may occur frequently for easy reference.
Hardware
ODIE manages each school's computer and network inventory. ODIE also manages the computers and devices that are sent to ESU 10's computer repair department, allowing for a repair history to be tracked for each device.
Workshops
ODIE allows teachers to easily register for one of the many workshops offered by the Network and Information Services, Special Education, and Professional Development departments at ESU 10. ODIE tracks the registrants of each workshop as well as the training history for each teacher that has attended more than one of the workshops available.
Library
ODIE allows teachers access to ESU 10's media catalog, both to the videos that get sent to via the routes that ESU 10 runs to each school each week, as well as the digital content as it becomes available for streaming and download.
Miscellaneous
ODIE also tracks all the miscellaneous services that the Network and Information Services department provides for our school districts. These services include:
- Binding
- Cisco Academy Support
- Contracted Services
- E-Rate Consortium
- Equipment Resale
- Greater Nebraska Educational Network Consortium (formerly Project 42)
- Infrastructure Support
- Internet Filtering
- Lamination
- Materials
- Standards Database
- TECHS (Technology Education Challenges in High Schools)
- Vendor Fees
- Video Duplication
- WebEvent Calendars

Link: communities.esu10.org
The ESU 10 Network & Information Services department staff has
created an online community framework allowing groups of people, or
communities, to stay in touch and share resources. This technology
allows groups to collaborate, contribute information and ideas,
participate in discussions, upload files, and other activities to the
community. Not only will this be a repository and archive for such
activities, this virtual environment will allow for collaboration when
it is sometimes hard to meet face to face because of time and budget
issues.
Communities use ODIE for authentication. That means you can use your
existing ODIE account (email address and password), and not have to
create another account for each community. If you don't have one, you
may request a new ODIE account.
If you have any questions about your ODIE account, about what a community
is, or anything else we might be able to assist you with, please let us know.
