For Week Ten: Get on Twitter and answer questions! Take iPads and interview people around campus! Finalize publishing plans for Our Book for Life.  Each author should have the creative license to create a visual to accompany their story!

Final assignments due: "Smack Down" Web 2.0 Tools now due on 11/28; participation in Our Book For Life and our final multimedia presentation.

Plan for the next few weeks - work in the media lab in McDonough filming and editing movie!  Everyone needs the experience of editing in iMovie!

Last class is 12/5, but we can always plan to meet the week of finals since we are not having a final exam. 


For Week Nine: Skype with @MsSandersTHS and her students.  Use #SandersTHS and #throughyoureyes to respond.  Here's the Google Doc that Ms. Sanders' students received with instructions: Expanding Our Empathy.

We will be collaborating on our multimedia project together.  Our project will focus on empathy and we'll answer the question - What would we see through your eyes?  What is tattooed on your head?  What preconceived notion do people have of you before they even know you? How does it feel to be welcomed and accepted?  Remember, we are responding to the video made by Amanda Todd and the lip dub we watched from the high school in Texas.  Start planning your videos and taking your pictures around campus!


For Week Eight: Working on Our Book for Life.


For Week Seven: Explore Google Reader, Bloglines, Newsgator, etc.  Also, check out these reviews: Newsgator vs Bloglines vs Google Reader and the Top 10 Web Based RSS Readers, Plus More.
