Scribe Post

I hope the beginning of the year has started smoothly. Once we have ended our review portion of the year we will begin having a scribe for each class. The scribe will be in charge of putting all of the notes, announcements, important dates, and homework in a post here. One thing that may be difficult to do is to post graphs and such. There are online tools that can help. More on that later. I will upload electronic copies of as many handouts and other things as possible and post them on our wiki. After the scribe has posted the class can comment on the post, looking for errors and omissions. You will be graded on your posts and any comments you make (that are relevant) will get you participation credit. I look forward to seeing how you do with this. Good luck!

Countdown to the 2007 - 2008 School Year

Well the countdown is on. Only 7 days left until the first day of school. I wanted to remind you that we will be going over the review packet during the first few days of school, along with some other material and class expectations. Also, there will be a quiz on the content of the packet and some other stuff after about a week. Make sure you are comfortable with a majority of the material in the packet before we begin class. If I were you I would get together with other members of the class and work together. Remember that you can post questions on the blog also, and get answers from your classmates.

That's all for now. See you all in a week. If you have any questions please comment on this post.
