Making Webpages Available for Offline Use In the Classroom

Have you ever planned to show a particular website for a lesson only to have the Internet not working that day. Here is a method to follow which will allow you to have a “backup” of the website to use in the event that access to the Internet is not an option.

Steps for Accessing Websites Offline

1. Using Internet Explorer, locate and display the website
2. Click on “Favorites” on the Menu bar and choose “Add to Favorites”
3. Click on “Make available offline”
4. Click “Customize” and “Next”
5. Click “Yes, 3 deep, Next”
6. Click “Only, Next”
7. Click “No Password. . . Finish”

Auto-synchronization will take place

To use

1. Open Internet Explorer
2. On the Menu bar select File-Work Offline
3. Select Favorites and then select desired website
