<text>BUTTONS: These are simply the search tools of the Handbook. Most have an identifying title written on, below, or above them. Use the mouse to move the cursor to the desired button and then click on the button to select the subject stack or card desired.To demonstrate the relationship of the buttons, stacks, and informa-tion in the Handbook and to better understand how the cards' buttons relate, Button Flow Diagrams are shown on the following cards. Clicking on each of the buttons of the Button Flow Cards will open up the stack to the subject identified on the button. Return to the Button Flow Card is accomplished by clicking on the "Go Back" instruction of the "Go" pull down menu, which is among the menus displayed beside the Apple icon at the top left of the Macintosh monitor.

<text>SPACE EDUCATORS' HOME CARD: Operation of the Handbook is accomplished via a Home Card. Clicking on the buttoned areas of the Home Card opens the stacks described on the buttons. Every card of the Handbook has an icon picture of the Earth. The Earth icon is usually located in the lower right hand corner of each card. Clicking on the Earth icon returns the program to the Handbook's Home Card. THE GO FIND COMMAND: Use of the "Go Find" Command of the Macintosh pull-down screen menu is especially useful in finding information in the subject stacks of the Handbook. Typing a desired key word in the Go/Find field initiates a search of the card text fields for the desired word in the subject stack. The Find Button on each card may also be used this way.</text>

<text>PURPOSE: The "Space Educators' Handbook" is a Hypercard Program which uses hypercard "buttons," "fields," and "stacks" as organizational tools, allowing quick access to space-related information.ORGANIZATION: The basic Handbook organizational unit is the "stack." Each stack is named for the type of information which it contains(example: Astronauts). Within each stack are individual "cards" which contain specific information related to the subject of the stack. A stack is simply a "deck" of cards; no two cards are alike. However, all cards within each a stack deal with the same subject matter. </text>

<text> The "Space Educators' Handbook" was adapted, compiled, and programmed by Jerry Woodfill of the Project Planning and External Relations Office of the New Initiatives Office at the Johnson SpaceCenter in Houston, Texas. The Handbook, which is continually being modified, is intended for informal use. Users are free to copy and share the program with interested space educators, but it is not to be sold for profit. Reference information within the Handbook is cited with regard to authorship and should likewise be cited in standard literary fashion when used in papers, speeches, or presentations. For the latest version of the Handbook, contact: Jerry Woodfill, Mail Code IA121, Johnson Space Center, Houston, Texas, 77058, (713) 283-5364. </text>

<text> INSTALLATION/USE/TROUBLE SHOOTING ***DO NOT CREATE SEPARATE FOLDERS FOR EACH DISKETTE*** Loading Procedure: 1. Create a folder called "Space Educators' Handbook." (Throughout the remainder of these instructions the "Space Educators' Handbook" will be referred to as the Handbook.) 2. Insert diskette one in the floppy drive port. 3. From the Mac pull down menu select "Edit" and click on the command "Select All." 4. Pull all the files from diskette one into the folder you have created. 5. Repeat the process (steps 2 through 4) for the remaining diskettes. 6. Click on each of the loaded files to expand all of them prior to using the Handbook. USE 1. Hypercard 1.2 does not permit printing of individual card fields, a useful feature of Hypercard 2.0. If field printing is required use the Handbook with Hypercard 2.0. 2. The diskettes containing the Handbook are either Hi-Density or Double-Density depending on the type of Macintosh floppy disk drive that you will be using. When ordering the Handbook, please specify the type of disk or the type Macintosh on which the program will be used. 3. The Handbook provides an "Expander" program which is a creation of "Disk Doubler." Though it can be provided to users of the Handbook, the compacting application "Disk Doubler" must be purchased from the manufacturer of the "Disk Doubler" program. For this reason, keep the original diskette files of the Handbook unexpanded and expand the files only after downloading them into a hard drive. The program requires about 10 megabytes of free space in a Macintosh's hard drive (not including Hypercard). 4. The stacks are locked to prevent violations of copyrights for copyrighted materials (art, narratives, etc.) which have been used in the stacks. However, entire stacks may be freely copied as "public domain" material. Trouble shootingPrior to invoking the following trouble shooting procedures, familiarize yourself with Hypercard by reading materials received with your computer version or procured development kit of Hypercard. If the original documents are not available, read the Hypercard "Help" stack using your computer display. Many difficulties will quickly be solved by educating yourself in regards to Hypercard. 1. If problems remain, check your version of Hypercard. It should be 1.2 or 2.0. (the Handbook runs on 2.0 though created in 1.2.). Remember both the Hypercard Application and its Home must be resident in the same folder. You can not mix Hypercard applications and their Homes. Note the Handbook also has a file called "HOME CARD" in capital letters. This is not to be mistaken for the Hypercard application Home stacks. 2. If both versions of Hypercard and their Home stacks are resident in the computer, difficulty may arise. If so, save the application and Home of either one of the applications on a spare diskette then remove the application from the computer. Note: Though created in Hypercard 1.2, the Handbook runs equally well with Hypercard 2.0, 2.1, and other later versions of Hypercard. Using Hypercard 2.1, a message may be displayed: "Where is button Text Arrows." This message is commonly displayed when using Hypercard 1.2 created stacks with Hypercard 2.0 and can be cancelled. From the File Pull Down Menu at the top of the Macintosh screen, click on open file and open any of the Handbook stacks, and the program will be operational. 3. Though Hypercard 2.0 will run the Handbook, a specially created "Search" button on the HOME CARD of the Handbook, located at the upper left works only with Hypercard 1.2. The button provides the capability to search through every stack of the Handbook for items entered in the Search message box after clicking the Search button. It, like the "Find" command, searches with the added capability of crossing stacks which "Find" does not possess. A copy of Hypercard 1.2 is required for the "Search" button. The information given in item 2 above is helpful when switching Hypercard applications to use the "Search" feature. (The "Search" button increments the search of all the stacks and their information narratives via the keyboard "Enter" key rather than the keyboard "Return" key used to increment "Find" searches of information contained in an individual stack.) 4. Ask the friend who gave you the software for help. 5. If the above does not solve the difficulty or if expanding errors or disk copy errors are encountered, please call Jerry Woodfill at (713) 283-5364. </text>

<text> PrefaceThe Space Educators' Handbook is a collection of space exploration information available on Macintosh through Hypercard as a space education resource. Ranging from early dreams of space ships to current manned missions, the 4,000 cards include statistics, historical facts and anecdotes, technical articles, accounts of NASA missions from Mercury through Space Shuttle, biographical information on women and men who have contributed to space exploration, scientific facts, and various other space-related data. The means of presenting the data range from cartoons and drawings to lists and narratives, some briefly quoted and some reproduced in full.The initial version of the Handbook, whose intended audience was a limited in-house group of users, was titled Space Advocates' Handbook. However, in response to an increasing amount of interest in using the Handbook primarily as an educational tool, its scope was broadened and its title and focus were changed.Approvals, where required, were obtained for all copyrighted materials which were used. Copying any or all of the stacks included in the Handbook is permitted; however, the stacks are locked to prevent cutting and pasting any copyrighted materials.The Space Educators' Handbook was reviewed for both form and content by the Documention Management Branch, Johnson Space Center, in liaison with the Public Affairs Office (Education Affairs). Over 4,000 hours were spent creating the Handbook in order to present the educational community a comprehensive, low cost tool for use in space education. Future plans for the Handbook include periodic updates, perhaps, every six months. Updates will include temporal material such as additional astronauts and their missions, new solar system findings by space probes, removal of outdated material, and the creation and adaptation of popular and useful new space exploration educational materials.I would like to credit those who helped provide advice, encouragement and materials for the Handbook. A few of the many contributors include: All the authors and editors whose materials were used; all the NASA Educational Services Organizations, but especially JSC, Headquarters, Ames, and JPL; Dr. Eddie Anderson, Secondary Education Branch Chief at NASA Headquarters; all the authors and artists who provided copyright approvals; the JSC Educational Assistant to the Director, Nancy Robertson; the JSC Educational Programs Officer, Dr. Robert Fitzmaurice; former Chief of the JSC Public Services Branch, Charles Biggs; Jim Poindexter; Norma Rhoads; Stella Luna; the staff of the Management Services Division of JSC, including Laura Gross (who did the editing); the staff of the New Initiatives Office at JSC, including Manager William Huffstetler, Lyn Gordon-Winkler, Fred Grissom; the staff of the NASA Aerospace Education Services Project at Oklahoma State University, including the former Chief, Dr. Malcolm Phelps (presently Chief of Educational Technology at NASA Headquarters), Dr. Nelson Ehrlich, Dr. Dale Bremmer, Dr. Greg Vogt, and the Aerospace Education Services Specialists who tour the United States encouraging teachers and students with space education resources; Angelo Casaburri (AESP specialist whose encouragement early in the project proved instrumental); and finally, Mr. Bill Atkinson, creator of Hypercard, whose vision of inexpensive easy-to-use software made this project possible. Others who have been equally helpful may have been overlooked. To these a deep depth of gratitude is owed and apologies are offered.
