Friday, September 16

1.  The first priority today will be to take the vocab quiz.  I will give you a couple of minutes to quickly review at the beginning of the hour - then we'll take the quiz.

One note about our quizzes - there is extra credit built into them!  If you remember this week there were 11 words - but the quiz will only be worth 10 points.  So, if you get all of the questions correct then you will get 11 out of 10 points - or one extra credit point.

All of the vocab quizzes will be taken on Classmarker, so you will need to go to that website and log in - but not until Mr. Pardoe gives you the ok!!  It is critical that you remember to click on the Finish now button twice when you have completed the quiz.  If you fail to click on the button twice after completing the quiz your score will not be registered, and the only way to correct this situation is to take the quiz again.

2.  Once you have completed the quiz you may move to work with your partner.  However, realize that other people may still be working on their quiz, so please give them the courtesy of being quiet so they can concentrate on finishing.

In order to publish your movie on Xtranormal, once you have finished making all changes to the movie click on "Publish".  Once your movie has been published to the Xtranormal website, you should see a screen that looks similar to this:


In order for me to be able to watch your movie you'll need to copy the URL.  Here is where the URL is located:


To copy this click your mouse in the area where the website is located, then hold down your Apple key and click the A key (this will select the entire URL).  Next, copy it (hold down the Apple-key and click the C key).  Once you have copied it you can paste it into a new email message from your gmail account.

Send your email to:  dpardoe@dist228.org.  In your email put "Internet Safety Project" (without the quotes) in the subject line.  Then make sure to include both of the partners' names at the bottom of the email.

This all needs to be done by the end of class TODAY!

3.  If you have a missing assignment and you are all done with your Internet Safety Project now would be the perfect time to get it done and handed in.  Remember, getting partial credit is better than getting no credit!


4.  Also, there is a new discussion post that you need to make by next Friday, Sept. 23.  It is as follows:  What do you feel is the most important aspect of Internet Safety?  Why?  Explain your answer in detail.

5.  If you are done with everything you can go to the Website Resources page on the blog and practice your keying.  Only do lessons on the websites - and you should only be working on those keys that we have learned.

6.  Lastly, if you are scheduled to help define the vocab list for next week there is nothing wrong with getting a head start today.  I would suggest you quickly meet with the rest of your group members and determine who is going to define what.  Then you can post your definitions anytime after class today.
