The role of social media in your lives will be our topic of discussion for the next few classes. I hope our classes will make you think a lot and help you to make wise choices. Please read this post carefully as resources and instructions for both classes are included.
**Reminder to all students: This Friday, May 23rd, is the last day to submit incomplete work or retakes. As of this Friday all incompletes become "0's"!!!! Do not turn in any make-up or retake work to a substitute! Be sure to give rubrics and any other papers directly to me and me only!!!
During class #1 this week, you will be diving right in to the social media activity we spoke about last week. If you were in class and downloaded the Digital Literacy & Citizenship Workbook last week, you will be using the Social Media Activity resource during your first class this week. Please be sure to read this resource carefully as you will find instructions for setting up the "submitting your work" component of this eText. **Please be sure to use the correct email address for me; it is sharing (whitek@mybps.us) not my email.
If you were not in class last week to download the Digital Literacy & Citizenship Workbook, you will need to use the "downloading" resource to take care of this. Unfortunately it will take most of class for the workbook to download. While your workbook is downloading you will work on the second activity for this week; the class two assignment.
During class #2 this week you will first finish editing and sharing your podcast. The resource for sharing your podcast is in your yellow Workstation Resource folder. Once this task has been completed, or if you finished it up last week, you will move on to working on your blog. I have created the Blog Checklist you asked for last week. You will be given a copy of this checklist; so be sure to use it. Remember, I will be assessing your blogs for your final grade, using the Blog Design Rubric, starting the first week of June. This does not leave much time for your to get it ready. I will be collecting your checklist once you have completed it. Once your blog is "assessment ready" you should create and publish a new post. Be sure to have a classmate edit your post before publishing it. I need to see at least 4 new posts before the end of the year!!
**I have my class on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week. I will be in school, but not in our lab. You will be having a substitute and I expect your best behavior and most effective effort. Everything you need is in the blog post and in your Workstation Resource folders. Please make good choices and get your work done. A summary of your class assignments is below:

- Use the Social Media Activity resource to complete the first unit in your Digital Literacy & Citizenship Workbook.
- If you were absent last week and did not download the workbook use the download resource to get the eText. You will not be able to complete the activity today as the book will not be there for you to use so you will then move on to the next activities.
- Finish editing your podcast and then share it. (The resource for this is in your Workstation Resource folder.)
- Ask substitute for a Blog Checklist and begin working on your blog; getting it ready to be assessed.
- I will be collecting your checklist once you have completed it. Please don not turn it in to the substitute. I will get it from you during our next class together. **You my want to use some of these blogs on your blogrolls (blog lists): List of Blogs
- Create and publish a new blog post. (Be sure to have a classmate edit it before you publish it.)
**You should not be watching videos (unless they are instructional or you are getting resources for your blog posts) or playing games on your iPads. You have plenty of work to get done!!
