Have a Great Summer!

Hi Girls,

Just wanted to say have a great summer and it was good to "meet" you both and work with you. Group projects, especially on the net, can be difficult at times, but it all worked out for the most part :-)

Website!!

K guys I have my two pages done from what I am thinking I am missing my DS, digital story, but that is because I am having trouble exporting/saving it so that I can download into youtube, so if any of you gurls have some help for me please tell me. I wasn't able to link the Google doc in but i just copied and pasted on my collab page and linked everything else. I do have my podcast on my Follow up page if there is another place for it please let me know. Besides that i did add the logo to the homepage, no one ever responded to my other post if there was anything needed from me to put on the homepage, so again just let me know. I wanted to get finished by today because i will be on the bus for 18 later on and on my way to West Virgina, so please if not finished one of you girls go ahead and post the url up, i will come to read any updates, if there is anything yo girls need please let me know.
Otherwise, it was really great working with you both, thanks so much for all of your hard work, have a great summer.

Another Post lol

Hey girls,

This is my last post for a bit, I promise :-)

Anyways, I just wanted to let you know I have my two pages done and will stop logging in or changing things on the site for a bit.

I'm passing the torch on ;-)

I will keep checking the blog though to see if I can help in any way.

Thanks!
Ab

Website

Hey girls,

Anne- I think I responded to all your posts ;-)

Also,

I am pretty much done with my pages. I have to add another item to the safety page and spell check both of my pages.

But I logged out so I think now you girls can log in to edit the site. I'll try to get my two sites finished today.

Responsibilities

Hi Girls,

I appologize for the numerous posts/emails. However, this final project has many pieces and it is essential for us to break up the parts and get to work. I hate to be bossy but I'm trying to get it all organized, so I appologize.

Okay, if we could all try to have our "parts" completed NO LATER THAN Saturday, it is due Sunday and we could look over it. I will be in Wisconsin, but have made arrangements to get to a computer Sunday to review our site/make changes if needed. Still, I will have limited time.

Duties:

Anne-
1. Introduction Page (explaining pbls in general, our pbl, its importance, wmu logo w/ hyperlink).
2. Reading Recipes Page (with your assignments, websites, and additional items and your contact at the bottom)
3. Your Second Page (with additions)
4. Final Inspiration Concept Map

Tracy-
1. Collaboration Page (explaining why its important, who to collaborate with, and some additional items and websites).
2. Your first page (appropriate assignments, websites, additional items, contact info).
3. Your second page
4. You already set up the site and THANKS GIRL!
5. Michigan Standards (already done!)

Abbi-
1. Set up sidebar.
2. Create Pages.
3. Delegate pieces.
4. Virtual Field Trip page (with epals/google dog and map, additional items)
5. Safety Page
6. Before Baking Page
7. ISTE Standards
8. Blog URL

Thanks girls, I will be as available as I possibly can be. I will have my pages completed by Thursday.

REMEMBER! No names except for contact at end of the pages you do, images with citations on EVERY page!

Sidebar Information

Hi Girls,

I have added all our pages and updated our navigation sidebar. Please see your page, change the title and add your information, including assignments, new ideas, websites, your contact name and email.

As for us each creating one new item, I thought we could do the following...

Abbi- Virtual Field Trip information (I can add epals/google map/doc here too) and two new items as well.

Anne- The introduction page. Possibly for your two new additions to it you could add information regarding pbl's in general, benefits, etc.

Tracy- Collaboration page, explain the importance of collaboration, who to collaborate with as teachers (like community members, other teachers, etc). Also, you could add two new items like a video on how to go about collaborating and maybe a survey for other teachers to see who has what additional experience.

Please let me know asap what you think. I am going to edit my three pages today.

I also added all the rest of our requirements such as ISTE standards, blog url, concept map sidebar (Anne I think Tracy did it last time, if you want to download the inspiration, update the map and connect the url to the page I added).

Thanks girls,
Abbi

Team Website Organization

Hi girls,

I've sent an e-mail with a rough layout for our site. However, I need to know how you would like to organize your two webpages as well as what original item/theme you'd like to do. I've chosen to do mine on virtual fieldtrips and how to use them in this PBL.

Please see the e-mails I sent, Kelsey has reviewed them. I will begin working diligently on the site today.
