an introduction to Mosaica Education's intranet

What's an intranet?

Simply put, an intranet is an web site designed and used by members within an organization. The focus of the web site is information that is useful to the staff of the organization.

Access to our intranet is through

Launched on October 30, 2002 for initial testing and review, iMOSAICA has evolved from a long list of school information page links to a compact portal which addresses many needs of Team Mosaica. The beauty of an intranet is that staff members can play a part in making it better. Everything that is on iMOSAICA is there because someone thought the information might be useful to other staff members. If you feel there is something that should be added to iMOSAICA, email the webmaster your suggestions and it will be considered or addition.

Review of the major areas on iMOSAICA

1=iMOSAICA button: This appears at the top of most pages and is always ment to serve as a link back to the iMOSAICA home page

2=Staff Directory: The old Master Directory spreadsheet is dead and now replaced by two new components - the Online Mosaica Staff Database (OMSD) and the new Master Directory in Adobe Acrobat format.

Staff Directory: Search by Name allows you to enter as few as one letter when searching for a staff member by either first or last name.

download Master Directory will begin the download of the lastest version (published monthly) of the new Master Directory. A link is provided below if for some strange reason you don't have the Adobe Acrobat reader.

MEI offices are listed by city and contain a map and driving directions for each.

4=Announcements: Important short-term and long-term announcements and newsletters will be posted here.

5=Departments: Each department that has forms or information they want to share with MEI staff will have their own area here. It is up to each "department" to give their information and forms to the webmaster for posting.

6=School Information: Select a school from the drop-down list to get a page full of that school's information (phone numbers, staff, address, directions, etc).

7=Web Resources & Links: This portion of iMOSAICA makes it our all-in-one "portal" to the web. Web resources are the most common things people use on the web - searching, getting directions making travel arrangements. Links are just that, but to things relative to Mosaica Education.

You are encouraged to share your thoughts and ideas (or questions) about how iMOSAICA can serve you better - as the first place you go to on the web each day and the place you come to for all Mosaica Education information.
