Checking In
Last week students filled out a form reflecting on their current progress in the course. These forms should be signed by someone at home and then returned to me. Since this course is offered in partnership with WCTC and students who successfully complete the class with a "C" or higher will earn WCTC and North credit, I want to maintain an open line of communication so that there are no "surprises" at the end of the semester.
Finishing Up Lesson 5 and Starting Lesson 6
It seemed as if students needed some extra time last week finishing up on lesson 4, so we did not begin lesson 5 until the end of last week. With lesson 5, students explored more about adding images to web pages and learned how to make an image map. Students will apply these techniques in the three web pages that go along with lesson 5. The plan is to finish up lesson 5 this week on Tuesday/Wednesday and begin lesson 6 on Thursday. Students should have their lesson 5 reading guides completed by Monday's class and be prepared to take our 10 multiple choice review questions on Tuesday/Wednesday. Reading guides and the lesson review questions can be found on BlackBoard, so please be prepared!
We started to use the industry-standard software, Adobe DreamWeaver, last week. This is an extremely costly program so it is probably not something easily accessible to students outside of our computer lab. If students need some additional time to work they can see me. I arrive to school by 7am each day and would be more than happy to open the lab.
