How to get started

 

Site Directory screen shotIs this your first visit? Go to the Site Directory.  Here you will find three tools to help orient you to the thousands of pages of valuable information.

 

The Site Map is the table of contents, with one-click access to all sections, topics and sub-topics.

 

The Topic Index (Coming soon!) is an alphabetical list of all subjects and ideas.

 

The Document Index (Coming soon!)  is an alphabetical list of document types, such as articles, lessons and reports.

 

Once you have the "big picture" you can travel easily through the site using the navigation buttons on the pages themselves.

 

 

Sections, Topics and Sub-topics

 

Links to the major sections of the site can be found at the top of the screen on all pages, and on the top and in the left sidebar of index, topic and sub-topic pages.

 

Links to the topics covered in each section can be found in the right sidebar. Clicking on one of these buttons will lead you an overview page for that topic. In the "For Parents" section the topics are Television, Movies, Music, Internet, Video Games, and Marketing and Consumerism.

 

Links to sub-topics can be found at the bottom of both the topic overview and sub-topic pages.

 

In the image table below you can see the grouping and location of links to major sections, topics, and sub-topics:

Breadcrumbs

 

The breadcrumbs are a horizontal string of links located above the title on topic and sub-topic pages.

 

Breadcrumbs

 

They help you keep track of where you are by showing where the page fits within the site hierarchy.

 

If you come to a sub-topic page from the search results, the breadcrumbs give you one-click access to both the topic overview and the index to the section in which the page resides.

 

Related and Recommended Resources

 

Related Resources sample imageAccess to documents in MNet's extensive resource archive is provided in the topic and sub-topic areas of the site via the "Related MNet Resources" links in the right sidebar.

 

Additional resources, external to the MNet site, are linked to under the title "Recommended reading, viewing surfing," also in the right sidebar.

 

Note: Throughout the site, links to external web sites trigger the opening of a new window. The MNet page stays open in the background.

 

When you finish viewing the external site, you can close the window by clicking the box in the upper right-hand corner.
