A Plan for Friday

IT9/10 Plan for Friday -
1a. Make sure I have your Flash assignment! 1b. Make sure you have posted your first paragraph to your blog. 1c. Make sure you have all invited and accepted join requests from everyone in the class (see firstclass for emails)
2. Create a new post that answers the following questions in detail:
- Why does my blog matter? 
- Create a question addressing your topic/part of your topic that can be answered in detail by your peers.  This should be a thought-provoking, interesting, creative question that will force people to formulate and argue an opinion.  For example: Why School?  or, Is technology in classrooms facilitating a richer learning experience for all, or distracting students from learning?
3. Respond to at least 3 other blog posts in detail.
4. After break we will have our Tech Reporter presentations.  After, finish working on your blog.  We start Scratch tomorrow :)

Blogger Assignment

Our blogger assignment is a way for you to share your passions!  Please make sure that you choose a topic that interests you - one that you can formulate questions and discussion around.  Be sure to add opinions and blogs AT LEAST once a week!  Also, comment on at least 2-3 others when you can (at least once a week).  Appropriate behaviour is expected.  Be respectful, thoughtful, and involved! (Remember - your peers, your teachers, and even your parents can potentially see this blog).

Please comment by telling me your passion (your blog topic) and your name if it is not obvious
eg. Ms. Pelat - IT9/10 blog

ENJOY!

Welcome :)

I am very excited to start my class blog with my wonderful students!  This blog will not only allow you to stay updated on class information, but you can also use this space to connect with me and other classmates outside of the classroom.  Feel free to engage in discussion, ask questions, and share opinions!
