//“A computer lets you make more mistakes faster than any invention in human history – with the possible exceptions of handguns and tequila.”//  ---I thought this was not only a funny quote, but also a reminder of how much trouble technology can create if we're not showing students how to appropriately use it. -Shawn This was after the $30- Heather- still trying to figure out how to get video into projects. -Heather

__**Project Rubric**__
 * Will you be using the rubric I designed or will you be developing your own?


 * For Thursday, October 29**


 * Blog:** Create a new reflective blog post __//on a topic of your choice//__. You may wish to reflect on your work to date, or you may wish to reflect on a new understanding or new discovery. Please complete this by **Monday evening** so we can //all read them before next Thursday's class.// Here is a [|rubric] for blogging. REFLECTION is key. Good writing is important, too. Length is whatever works best for you and the story you want to tell. Please comment using the Diigo highlighting/commenting toolbar or the comments feature of the blogs.


 * Sharing:** Post any interesting articles, videos, findings on the Internet, etc for next week to the October 29 page.


 * Meaningful Learning Text:** Ongoing assignment. Summary, links and probing questions due December 3. Post to your chapter page linked from the Meaningful Learning with Technology wiki page.


 * Class Project:** Using the [|rubric], or one of your own creation, finalize a group, format and structure for your final project. During next week's class activity, I will circulate to everyone in the class to discuss how you plan to approach your final project. //**This should be your main focus in preparation for the October 29 class.**//

** Next Meeting: Thursday, October 29 - 4:00-7:00 PM New Topic: Sharing; Evaluating Web 2.0 content sites**
