5 Effort/Participation – Grade Two Grade Two: Effort and participation in class the past two weeks Did you learn anything? Did you read the suggestions given in the template? Did you do what it said? Did you take time to include catchy titles, clip art, etc. Were you on task every day? Did you really TRY and give 90 to 100% effort every day? Did you help anyone? Did you try to figure things out on your own by using the Help menu or by asking someone how they accomplished a task? OR were you distracting others, talking about random things, playing games, messing with stress reducers, getting online, talking instead of working, etc? If yes, deduct points.

8 Learning.com Comments Make a graph or tell me what you lessons you completed. Did you learn anything from learning.com? We should have done more follow up with the lessons, but we had so many server problems and glitches that we didn’t really have time. My apologies for that.

9 Power Point Continued Based on information from learning.com compare and contrast spreadsheets and databases Write a little bit about each of the following learning.com lessons on the following slides You may add slides Prove to me that you have learned something other than games and things you are not supposed to do!

10 SPREADSHEETS VS DATABASES Compare or Contrast SPREADSHEETS DATABASES

11 REMINDERS Don’t Don’t use Power Point to write a book report. Do Do use Power Point to guide you through a report by highlighting or listing the main points that you want to discuss when you present. You don’t want to READ a Power Point You should enter the main points or things you want to highlight during your presentation. So…Do not type tons of words in a small font! Fonts should be at least 32 point – this power point is NOT a good example of Power Point for a presentation, this is just for directions.

12 Power Point … Begin presentation and effects after this slide Add animation, tell me about things you have learned or done that were not part of the curriculum (3-D Sketch Up, Educational Games, Searching, etc) Add a graphic to each slide that goes along with the topic Play around with the clip art options on the last slide You may insert images you have saved or bits of your journal, word clouds ( wordle.net), paint, etc.

16 Validity and Sourcing What kind of website is this? Personal (look for a tilde ~ or.net or users) Educational (look for.edu) Governmental (look for.gov) Advocacy (look for.org) Commercial (look for.com)

17 What Is a Search Engine? Search engines don’t actually search the Web. They search a database. The database is created using programs called spiders which search full text of web sites. The sites are then indexed.

18 AND Find all the words. Example: internet AND education AND NOT Find documents which have the first word, but not the second word. Example: Internet AND NOT html OR Find any of the words. Example: Internet OR intranet Boolean Operators

25 In Closing… I hope you learned something this year, but I know things have been hectic and I truly do wish we could have done more. There have been difficult times, due to computer problems, network issues, and classroom dynamics among other things, but most of you have managed to do your best and to take charge of your own learning. That is what you are going to have to do from now on when dealing with technology.

26 And that’s about all for now… In the future, remember that you are in control of your education and you get out of things what you put into them. READ, LISTEN, THINK, TRY NOT TO DISTURB OTHERS, BECAUSE… You are in control of your situation and only you can control the way you react to things. Take care, have fun, and have a safe summer!
