Critic suggests "Great Debaters" DVD as springboard for serious discussion

How to install

  1. Click the "Get the story in iPod format" button above.
  2. You'll be prompted to save a file. Save it to your computer, and unzip it. It should create a folder called "ktka.com".
  3. Connect your iPod to your computer and mount it as an external drive. On Windows, it should appear in "My Computer." On a Mac, it should appear in your Finder.
  4. In that drive, open the "Notes" folder and drag the "ktka.com" folder into it. Note: Be careful not to overwrite anything you already have.

How to view

  1. Turn on your iPod. Go to the main menu, and select "Extras," then "Notes," then "ktka.com". Note: The first time you do this, it might take a short while to load. Don't worry — that'll only happen the first time.
  2. Navigate through the information by using the scroll wheel and click button. To go back up a level, click the "Menu" button.

F.A.Q.

How much space does a story take up?
Only about 3,000 kilobytes, which is negligible.
Hey, my iPod doesn't have a "Notes" feature...
We're sorry, but this only works on relatively new iPods.
How do I unzip a file?
First, try double-clicking on the file. If nothing productive happens, download a program such as WinZip (Windows) or Stuffit Expander (Mac).
How do I remove it from my iPod?
Just connect your iPod to your computer and mount it, then delete the "ktka.com" folder. It's that easy!
