The table above contains links to MS Word documents of the LIGO Hanford field trip activities, the field trip activity teacher guide and Teachers Corner classroom activities. Choose the desired file from the table (spectroscopy_9t12.doc if you want the high school version of the spectroscope, for example). If you are using Internet Explorer, RIGHT click on the file link. Click "Save Target As", and designate a place on your hard drive or network to save the file. If you are using Netscape, RIGHT click on the file link. Click "Open in New Window". When the document opens in a new window, click "file" and "save as", then designate a place on your hard drive or network to save the file. You can keep the name that we have used for the file or you can give it a new name. Make sure you note the location where it will be saved so you can find the file later. ADVANTAGES: You can print the Word document without any changes and the page breaks should (we hope) make sense. Once you have the Word file saved, you can work with it easily. The formatting and graphics will probably print better from this method. DISADVANTAGES: You must have Microsoft Word from the Office 97 version or higher. Sometimes the file saving process can be aggravating.
