6th:  On the first day of class I told you that we would be learning some new vocabulary words this semester and we will begin today with the word DESKTOP.  The definition for desktop is: your computer's home screen.  I have created a Microsoft Excel template that we will be using for the notebook and we will be looking at that today.  After we start our notebook we will be doing some detective work using keyboard shortcuts.

7th:  Now that you have an idea for your company it's time to start brainstorming the details.  In class today, I will show you how to use the program "Inspiration" which is on your desktop.  This class tutorial will be very helpful before you start your web.  In order to make your web complete, you will need to include this information.  The finished web for your company should be completed by the start of Tuesday's class.

8th:  To get started today, check your answers to the homework from Tuesday's class.  I will be posting the grades for that assignment on Monday.  Also, we will be having a quiz next week on Podcasts (what they are, how they are used and some of the vocab) so you should use these answers to help you review.  The quiz will be on Wednesday.

Now that we know what a podcast is and how they are used, we will be listening to two podcasts in class today.  Using these podcasts as a basis, we will be determining as a class what makes a podcast good and what makes a podcast not so good.  By the end of class today we should have a better idea about podcasts in general as well as what they should and should not include.
