Daily Agenda, Wednesday 11/12

Yes, I know I am gone again. I am very sorry. I will be back tomorrow, I promise.

REMINDERS:


3RD SIX WEEKS GRADES HAVE BEGUN ACCRUING!

Your group projects should now all be done. All documents and presentations better be saved to the J:drive in the appropriate location.

I have a new assignment for you to start today. YOU WILL NEED EVERY MINUTE OF TODAY, TO READ AND GATHER YOUR INFORMATION FOR THIS ACTIVITY, SO YOU CAN START PREPARING HANDOUT FOR ACTIVITY ON THURSDAY. The whole project MUST BE finished by the end of the period on Friday.


DON'T FORGET YOUR 2ND SIX WEEKS TIME SHEETS ARE DUE SIGNED BY YOUR EMPLOYER BY FRIDAY, 11/14.


WARM-UP:
1) Post assignment.
* Create a NEW POST on your blog
* Title the post: Work Schedule Week#12
* List in the text box, your work schedule for this week
2) If you posted your work schedule yesterday, you will receive bonus points. If you did post yesterday, and it has changed, please update that post now.

CLASS ACTIVITIES:
3) Group work is DONE. EVERYTHING BETTER BE TURNED IN CORRECTLY.
4) New assignment that must be completed by the end of the period Friday.
TODAY'S ASSIGNMENT IS GOING TO REQUIRE THAT EVERYONE IS QUIET DURING CLASS SO THAT EVERYONE CAN READ AND STUDY THE INFORMATION NEEDED TO COMPELTE THEIR PROJECT.

5) You are going to want to take some notes (written, typed in word) as you read and study the website topic you choose.


6) Click here to go to the assignment directions and requirements sheet. http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dgq9d2s6_38f4vpw2w
YOU ARE GOING TO NEED TO READ EVERYTHING ON THE DOCUMENT AT THE ABOVE WEBSITE. IF YOU WANT TO PRINT IT OUT, THAT IS FINE WITH ME.


YOU MAY NOT COPY AND PASTE INFORMATION FROM THE WEBSITES TO BE USED AS YOUR OWN WORK - THAT IS PLAGIRISM AND WILL RESULT IN A ZERO. There is nothing wrong with copying and pasting and then going back and writing it in your own words. You can even quote some of the informaiton you get from the websites you will be visiting. YOU CANNOT QUOTE EVERYTHING AND YOU MUST GIVE CREDIT TO THE WEBSITE YOU GET YOUR INFORMATION FROM. (I will talk more about that on Thursday.)

I lost my rubric while I was creating it. I will get the grading rubric to you on Thursday as well as show some examples of what I want.

ALL YOU REALLY NEED TO DO TODAY IS:
1. pick your topic
2. read and take notes over your topic from the website
3. read over the requirements, listed at the above website.

THERE SHOULD BE NO TALKING TODAY DURING CLASS!!!
