Snow or No Snow, We Go On: March 21, 2016

Happy first full day of spring, everyone!  How fitting that we could have a snowstorm on this day.

Today in class, you got started on your presentations. We have this week (gulp!) to get this done.  You will have to work on this assignment outside class time.  This is what you should have done so far:

  • Identified a topic to study
  • Started a project folder on Google Drive
  • Taken group notes from a textbook that relate to your topic in general and generated questions
  • Taken individual notes from the internet that relate to your topic in general
  • Used the resources (blog posts and pictures) to learn about how your topic affected Exeter
  • Identified a major research question to focus your project and shared it on my Google Form
  • Uploaded pictures from my Exeter materials into your project folder
  • Identified what kind of product you are creating (essay, Google Slides, Prezi, iMovie) 
If you have not finished these things, you need to catch up!

What to do now:
  • Except for iMovie, set up your presentation - choose a Prezi or Google Slides template, share it with partners; open a new doc for your essay
  • Think about your project - it should have a beginning, a middle, and an end.  What was Exeter like before your technology arrived?  How has it changed Exeter?
  • Start an EasyBib for your project. Put your internet sources in it.
