Today we discovered how to properly use Blogger.com. We helped people who couldn't get on and send Mr.Schick their URL. After everyone was able to send their URL to him, we learned how to bring up the syllabus. We talked about the different rules for using your computer: no going on inappropriate websites, not laying games, and of coarse having you battery charged every day. Mr. Schick stressed very much that he doesn't give extra credit. He also told us about his grading method, what he grades and how he grades them. He also told us about the calender. It showed the entire calender for the semester. He also told us the materials that we would need. They are: a personal computer with Internet access, a composition notebook, pens or pencils, an open mind, and a willingness to learn how to read, write, and think. Today was a great day to start off the year by learning how to work the programs and learn the rules.
