It says there's an image in the
question, but you can't see it?
 Sometimes the
connection slows down. Who knows why? Maybe it's sunspots or Aunt
Minnie's hair dryer. That means that the text of the question may appear
before the image downloads completely. Just give it time. Or try
shutting down WebCT and coming back (you'll pick up with the item in question when you
re-enter the test). If you still can't see it, contact me.
The
photo or figure is fuzzy or too small to see clearly? Often,
the photo that I use is purposely fuzzy. Part of this is pure evil.
But mainly it is to test whether you can apply the information seen in a clear
cartoon used in the course or in the textbook to the "real
world." The real world is often fuzzy and hard to see --but there are
characteristics and landmarks that you can use to find your way and discover the
right answer.
 Sometimes the figure is harder
to see than it has to be because your monitor is set to reproduce the images in
a small size. There are several ways to get around this. One
is to print out the item. Often, when it prints out on paper, it is much
larger than on the monitor screen. Be sure to use the best print quality
setting on your computer to get the sharpest image. Another
way to deal with small figures on the screen is to adjust the display settings
on your monitor. Navigate to the Control
Panel in Windows and select display,
then settings
--then move your display size to a lower number, such as
800x600. This will make everything on your screen appear larger. You
can also right-click on the image and copy the image into an image-editing
program. Then you can either zoom on the image or resize to make it
bigger. For example, you can click on Start,
the Programs,
then Accessories,
then Paint
--and then paste your copied image into the blank canvas that opens
automatically. Then click View,
then Zoom
to enlarge it.
