Today is the day. You be finishing the twenty blog criteria by the end of this week. Today is your last ICT class so you may have to do some of this from home.

Once you are ready you should go to the form on my Assessment page and enter your name, check off what you have done, give yourself a grade out of 20…then SUBMIT:)

Government Censorship…

U.S. seamen surf the Web in an Internet cafe aboard the USS Milius February 16, 2003 in the North Arabian Gulf off the coast of Iraq. A new Canadian law could allow police to monitor people's web-surfing habits.

How does this make you feel?

Impressed overall.

I have been please with each of your efforts in the first week. I expect the same for the next 19 weeks. I have also been especially thankful for your patience in terms of getting help from me (it’s hard to get around quick enough). Those people that have been helping others deserve a pat on the back. GOOD NEWS: You can now see what is compulsory for your LEVEL and now you may begin to choose what projects you’ll do first and what your independent project may be.

So, what’s with the picture? Click on it and you’ll see. Comment? What’s your opinion of Anonymous?

Not quite there yet…

Honestly, only one student (not even Jesse, Cody, or Kamen) fully read and understood my ’1st Official Class’ post…read it again, look at all the blue hyperlinks…you were supposed to leave a comment about something you’ve learned with a HYPERLINK…who was the one? Try again today to meet that expectation, last chance for the MARK.

You should be checking off #1-20 of the blog criteria.

:)

Two People got the MARKS!!

Way to go Jesse and Cody…they read my post, titled ’1st Official class’ and commented on it…FOR MARKS!!! I use your comments for participation and attendance marks…so reread that post and follow the directions.

Otherwise, keep building your blogs, don’t get frustrated…it takes time.

If you are finished you should be looking at your proper Level and deciding upon what topics you will cover. Remember to create a gmail account and go to Google Calendars to begin outlining your ICT schedule!

1st Official Class!

Both Kamen and Jesse know my ICT class well, and one of the most important aspects of it is DIGITAL COMMUNICATION…which you are all pretty much inundated with via your iphones, ipds, etc…in any case, signing into class happens through reading and replying to each new post I make.

Sometimes I may not ask you for anything specific and so you instead of writing “here”, “your name”, or nothing, you must provide the rest of the class with a link to something you have recently learned, a snippet of useful information…hopefully about ICT but other areas if you think it is valuable:)

Does that make sense?

Best COMMENT to your 1st Official Post request from Mr. Morton!

(Don’t have as many links as I did…just one with a short explanation to spark our interest & attention:)

(Kamen, Graham, and Keagon see me about your email addresses…)
