Start of the School Year

The second day of class has been very exciting. The students set up their Gmail accounts and requested wiki accounts on the Globaloria site. They began working on their profiles; they were thoroughly enjoying their time in class and worked until the bell rang. Thank you Globaloria for an exciting curriculum that keeps students engaged.

WV Technology Conference

Last week I attended the West Virginia Technology Conference and increased my knowledge in delivering 21st Century Skills to students. One particularly interesting website was presented by Mark Moore: Jing at http://jingproject.com/ which allows you to convert PowerPoint's, images, and etc into SWF files. Check it out for free!!!

Progress

I finished the final design of the presentation for Battlestar Globaloria's game. I completed it in PowerPoint as I was only the designer. I tried to upload the presentation to the group wiki, but the site would not take PowerPoint files. I guess I need to try to put this presentation in another format to upload. Any suggestions from the Globalorist's?
