How+to+Use+SCOUT

I thought that using photographs would be useful in teaching and reminding students how to use SCOUT, the Self-Check Out computer in the library. I could use these photos in a PowerPoint presentation and I could also post them near the computer.

How to Use SCOUT

Hi! I'm SCOUT, the Self-Check Out Computer in the Library.



My friend, Aaron, is here with me today to help you learn how to check out books independently.



The first step is to find a great book!



Next, find your library card.



Scan your library card with my scanner.



Put your library card in the red box.



Make sure to check my screen to make sure it is showing your name.



Next, scan your book.



Check my screen again to make sure there are no messages.

If everything is correct, scan the purple and white RESET card to get me ready for the next student.

Finally... Enjoy your book! Remember that it is due in one week.



If you have any questions, ask the librarian.

She is always ready to help you.

The End

During the photo shoot, my son skipped a few steps and I didn't catch it until I reviewed the pictures. We went back and took pictures of the steps he missed, however, if you look carefully, there are some "bloopers". For example, Aaron still has his library card in his hand two steps after he was shown putting it in the red box! Can you find the others? Obviously, I would have to fix these continuity issues should I actually use these pictures for the library. :-)
