This page will contain lots of Tips and Tricks about using computers at MCHS. I learned these tips in my Introduction to Information Technology class.
Keyboard Shortcuts:

![]() |
| Mac Keyboard |
Command + V = Paste
Command + W = Close Window
Command + Q = Quit
Command + N = New Window
Command + M = Minimize Window
Command + Shift + 4 = Screenshot
Drop Servers:
When trying to drop an assignment to your teacher's drop server, you need to save your assignment to your server so it's located in a folder. From there, open your teacher's drop
box and drag your document to the folder.
Tips:
Image Editing: I suggest to really take your time while editing images. You don't want to mess up, or make a photo look like you put too much edit into it. You want it to look almost natural. Have fun with it! Even if it is a project for school you can make it interesting and enjoyable with image editing.
Formatting: When working with formatting it's essential to pay close attention to small details. Make sure that you always read through all of the directions and don't for get the rules.
iMovie: When working in iMovie always be cautious about what you're doing. One small move could mess up the entire thing. Work slow, and have fun with it.
Garageband: While working in Garageband you need to make sure that you are careful when it comes to lining up your pictures with the actual voice recordings. You want it all to make sense and be chronologically correct.
Excel/Spreadsheet: While working in excel or spreadsheet, always remember to be cautious of what box you're putting your information in. Also, when you have to do formulas, always make sure that you have the right boxes selected.
PPT/Presentation: Remember to not over load the amount of information on each slide. It's suppose to be simple. Also, make it fun and use smart art graphics when putting in your facts.
