Finishing up the semester

The Capstone Project:
This is due at the beginning of class today. Please make sure your Capstone page has been published.

Final Reflection:
Please review the final reflection project description to ensure that you understand the requirements. Viewing the blog posting from February 6 and the website called Funderstanding will help you in the writing of your final reflection.

Final Portfolio:
It's time to finish up your portfolio. View the project description to see what will be graded. All of your pages should be complete (except probably the Capstone page). You will need to add screenshots to the Productivity Tools, PowerPoint Games, iMovie, WebQuest, and Inspiration/Kidspiration pages using the handout provided in today's class. You will also need to proofread your pages and ensure that all of your links work.

The final task to complete for your portfolio is to write a short introduction for your home page. The introduction should contain a succinct rationale for your portfolio. View portfolios from last fall for ideas of what to write.

The portfolio is due at the beginning of class on Thursday, April 26. It is not eligible for resubmittal.

Final Showcase:
During Thursday's class, you will be sharing the work you have created this semester. You will also be viewing the work of your classmates and voting on the portfolio that is most representative of the work that is completed in EDIT 2000. Prizes will be awarded! Make a plan for how you will display your work and how you will encourage fellow students to visit your display and vote for your portfolio.
