Wow! I can't believe that this is week 24 of the school year! My first Technology class completed their final projects, click here to see their video commercials. They are now in Robotics and I have a new group in Technology class. I learned a lot from that first group and my new group will benefit from my experience. I will repeat many of the projects that the first group did, but this time I can tweak the projects so they run more smoothly.

My goal is to give them a rounded education in word processing, keyboarding, presentation, spreadsheets, and video production, on Google Docs and other software. Right now, the class is working on keyboarding on a free Web site, alfatyping.com.  They are also learning how to format essays on word processing software in Google Docs. They can work on these at school or home because they are saved on the Internet. The students have also begun to form their Book Clubs in preparation for doing PowerPoint type presentations on the books they have read. As usual, engagement and the fun quotient are HIGH!
