Wednesday May 6: Say What You DO

Greetings on this all too short day:

There is only one thing I need you to do,and it is this: think about all the things we have done in class in the past two weeks, the different programs you've tested out, different operating systems you've installed, whatever it is that you have taken upon yourself to do, and then

A) make a post on our Google discussion group detailing what it is that you have done.Make sure the subject line includes your name AND a short description of what it is the body of your post will be about. Do you want to discuss your work with MASH? SketchUp? GoldWave? Multiquence? ChaosPro? Windows 2003 Server installation? It's up to you which one you choose (Just make sure its something that you actually did)

B) The body of your discussion post be be at least three paragraphs of three complete sentences each.

C) Your paragraphs should deal with the following:

  • Paragraph One -- why did you choose this particular technology? What drew you to it in the first place? Why do you want to discuss THIS particular thing?
  • Paragraph Two -- List at least four things you managed to do with whatever you discussed in Paragraph One that you thought were informative, enlightening or just plain cool
  • Paragraph Three -- Pretend that you had to demonstrate to someone else - a friend, a schoolmate, an adult,a family member-- HOW to do at least one of the cool things you did in Paragraph Two. Pretend (remember?) that this other person knows NOTHING about this topic before you explain it to them.

D) After you're done, then any remaining classtime is yours

Mr. L
