Wednesday, 12/10

Agenda
1) Computer Research

Homework
Finish research (if necessary)

When we come back from winter break, our class will move into classroom E125. This is my new classroom because it has an attached workroom which we've been able to make into a mini computer lab for the Journalism class (which I also teach). Today we met in classroom E125, so kids would be able to familiarize themselves with the room. The workroom has 14 computers, so everyone got a 15-minute block to do some research.

This may not be enough time for every student to finish their research, but it was enough for everyone to get started and to get help from me if they were unsure how to proceed. The rest of the research, if necessary, can be done as homework.
