Day 3

Today we learned about using Microsoft Publisher.  We also learned a neat trick for Microsoft Word:
It generates random paragraphs (in this case, 3).

Then we had a rollicking session on Fake news:


This afternoon, we learned about some genealogy resources and I was able to find some family grave photos:

Day 16: Review, A Website of my life, a Super Nova and all the news that's fit to print.

We began with a presentation about iPad apps that can be of use in the classroom. Then we made out own website story using Adobe Spark: https://spark.adobe.com/page/kj2yyqTGGi3R5/ So over the weekend, my clay pieces were fired.  One came out fine: And it's being glazed: The glaze looks like Pepto-Bismol. My tiles were not so fortunate. This is the sole survivor.  Much like an old star, they exploded.  The brightest flames burn quickest, I suppose.  I still have the concept and I also have the sole survivor: Hopefully, it holds up because this glaze has a very interesting look once it's fired.

Anyway, after lunch we went over to the library to get acquainted with MAGNOLIA . I'm pretty sure i'll be able to utilize it effectively.  Especially now that I hyperlinked it to the page that I can revisit! I learned THAT lesson from last time, I tell you what. Then we learned about standards.  I was not aware of this little jewel that can help out with standards as far as technology integration is concerned.
