Okay, maybe it’s too soon to tell, but would you like to have a page like this? It’s pretty easy to do…you don’t need any special programs…just a web browser. You do everything (including picking the style of your page) by filling in forms and checking (or un-checking) boxes. The only thing that is helpful to know how to do is cutting and pasting from a word processing program (like MS Word). BUT, you don’t have to know how to do this. The only reason I like to start first in Word is because I am addicted to spell check, and as of yet, edublogs does not have spell check. If you are interested in making a page like this, you should come to one of the Web 2.0 inservices! There will be two in October (Oct. 18-East and Oct. 23-GWC) right after school. You’ll even receive unscheduled inservice hours…so think about it. Email me if you want to come!

Upcoming District-wide Technology Inservices
Yes, the ITRT department will be teaching after school inservices for unscheduled inservice hours again this year. A sneak preview of the topics—Kerio: More Than Just Email, Beginning Front Page, Front Page Workshop, Beginning PowerPoint, PowerPoint Workshop, Digital Camera Workshop, Intro to Web 2.0, Movie Maker/ Photostory, and maybe more! We will be offering a workshop format where you come prepared to make and take…and the usual inservice format where you will be introduced to a certain piece of technology. Enough on that for now….just keep a lookout for a brochure and website giving the details!!
SchoolNotes
Both Mrs. Rose and Mrs. Byington are requiring that their teachers have a SchoolNotes page. To help those teachers who do not have a SchoolNotes page yet, two workshops will be offered (Oct. 16—GWC and Oct. 18—East) on this topic. If you need help with SchoolNotes or would just like the company of co-workers as you make your page, please join us! Bring some information about your class that you would like to post. If you make a page on your own, make sure to let me know so that I can link it to our school’s website!
