To run FOSSweb, your computer needs a compatible web browser and current versions of the following plug-ins: QuickTime™, Flash, and Shockwave. Please note, the plug-in requirements are different for the grades K–2 and 3–5 modules. Shockwave is only needed for the grades 3–5 modules. If you are only using the K–2 modules, you do not need this plug-in.
