Wiki Reflection

Today you should spend a little bit of time reflecting on the progress you have made on your "What will the future look like?" Google site. You should also reflect on what you still need to do.

Include a full paragraph that includes an introductory sentence, gives examples of how you have worked with your partners in Texas, and what good contributions you have made, as well as what you still need to do.

Working with Pewitt Junior High in Omaha, Texas

We are beginning our collaborative project with our partners from Pewitt Junior High in Omaha, Texas. We have assigned our groups, and today we will begin communicating with our partners from Omaha, Texas. You have been assigned a partner (or two in a few cases) and will begin introducing yourself. First write a brief introduction on your blog post and then copy it in an e-mail to your partners.

You can also visit our collaborative project to see which partners you will be working with.

Remember to avoid writing personal information. Just put your first name, and don't tell your birthday (though the month is okay). Tell about your hobbies and favorite things --what books, music, movies you like, as well as general information about where you are from, where you have lived, what pets you have, and other information that might be of interest.

Once your blog post has been completed and approved, then copy your post into an e-mail to your partners. Include a link (the URL) to your blog if your partner wants to investigate more about you.

Your Life in 2020

In the year 2020, many of you will be just finishing University. You will be 22 or 23 years old, probably. You may be deciding what career path you will follow. Think about your life in the year 2020 and write a fun story telling about how you communicate with your friends, how you conduct business -- buying or selling things and completing transactions. What will you do for fun?

Write some of your ideas in a post on your blog.

Welcome Back!

Welcome back from winter holiday. Hopefully everyone had a great time. We'll be anxious to share highlights of our travels, as well as begin working on the new year.

For today, you will add a blog post about your holiday experiences, as well as make sure your blog has a link back to this page.

Good luck!

The 09 Campaign

It is fun to have a new class of 6th grade IT students, and they have been exploring Emerging Technologies. Look at their posts (see their addresses at the right to see more about what they are learning in class this trimester.

A break from IT

As we are now in our final trimester, we are taking a break from the 6th grade IT course, and Mr. Woodward is enjoying the opportunity to teach 7th & 8th graders Digital Video.

We will pick up this blog once IT resumes again in a future trimester.
