    Scroll down to see a table that looks like this near the top of the IFD:

    This table contains links to the documents listed. Clicking the link to an

    Exemplar Lesson or to a Rubric for a Performance Indicator will open

    that item in a new IE tab or window. Clicking the link to a Unit Test will

    open a new IE tab or window that contains a link to the PDF version of

    the Unit Test.

    Click on Exemplar Lesson 01. Note the Create My Version button at the

    top-right. This feature allows you to make a copy of the Exemplar

    Lesson, add it to your personal list, and make changes to your copy.

    Feel free to play you are only changing your copy.

    Scroll down in your Exemplar Lesson until you find the box labeled

    Attachments. This is a list of links to your student handouts and other

    supporting files, such as PPTs, Excel Workbooks, etc. Clicking one of

    these links will open the associated file.

    Tools Tab My Calendar

    Click on the Tools Tab. Click on My Calendar. Note: Calendar and

    Planbook are synonymous in this context. As of mid-August, 2012,

    functionality in this module is limited and somewhat quirky. There is a

    6-page PDF document on the Home Tab under CSCOPE Resources

    titled, Tools: My Calendar. I suggest you read it first.

    Tools Tab Content Creator

    Click on Content Creator. This is where you will see Exemplar Lessonsthat you have created your own version of. It is also where you can

    create a new lesson from scratch without using anything from

    CSCOPE. Note the two buttons at the top: My Lesson Plans vs My

    Exemplar Lessons. You can create new lessons using the ELA K-5

    format, the ELA 6-12 format, or the 5E Model format.

    Tools Tab Administrator Console

    You will only have access to this function if you are set up in the

    system in an administrative role. This feature is not yet active. It is

    scheduled to go live sometime after September 1, 2012. It willprovide access to the Principals Walkthrough Tool and the Principals

    Corner, which will enable you to review teachers lesson plans.

    Search Box (top-right corner of every screen)

    Note the search box in the top-right corner. Enter a content-specific

    term (for Social Studies I might enter constitution) and click on the

    magnifying glass. This will take you to the Search CSCOPE

    Components page of the CSCOPE Tab where it will display every

    document in the system that includes your search-word. You can

    narrow your search by grade(s), subject(s), and course(s). You can also

    narrow your search by type of document by checking one or more

    boxes under Curriculum, Assessment, or Instruction.

    NOTE: You must click the Search button to refresh after changing your

    search criteria.

    Submitting Feedback

    Please report all errors that you find they cant begin to fix it until

    they know that it is broken. When you find an error, scroll to thebottom of whatever page you are on.

    Look for these two buttons in the lower-left

    corner:

    First, click the View Comments button to see if someone else has

    already reported the same error. If it is already on the list, there is no

    need to submit it again. If it is not on the list, then click the Submit

    Feedback button and provide a detailed description of the error. Note,however, that as of mid-August, 2012, the feedback system is

    undergoing some major renovations. If you should be unable to find

    these buttons, or if clicking them triggers an error message, then use

    the Contact Us link found at the very bottom of the screen to send an

    e-mail to the Help Desk in lieu of using Submit Feedback.
