AlgConn Update for the week of March 13, 2000

31. Journal Prompt for the Week of March 13, 2000:
Free Write.

Your 3rd Nine Weeks Portfolio is due TUESDAY, MARCH 14, 2000 by 2:30 PM. This Portfolio should have the Checklist in the front, and then the 7 items, in order, including the Complete Journal Writings (1-31). Each item should have a unique Cover Instrument (CI). Then in the back you should have the 3rd Nine Weeks Pre-Portfolio, followed by the 2nd Nine Weeks Portfolio followed by the 1st Nine Weeks Portfolio, and then the 1st Nine Weeks Pre-Portfolio, in order. Your entire 3rd Nine Weeks grade will come from this Portfolio. It might be wise to have me look at one or two items in your Portfolio before you finish it. Most people now "understand" the Portfolio, so you could also check with your classmates to see how they are doing it. Don't forget that the Ability to Test Item must be the 3rd Nine Weeks Examination, and to get the full value of this item, which is 30% of your grade, you must Correct the items you missed, and Reflect on why you missed each item. All items in this Portfolio should come from the Fodder list (below). Place the Portfolio IN MY HAND when you are finished with it.

This week:
# Go to Lab II (aka Lab III) on Monday and Tuesday to finish your Portfolio.
# Correct and Reflect on the 3rd Nine Weeks Examination.
# Write in your Journal.
# Do Ball Bounce III.
# Check your grades on the Grade Viewer.
# If you don't have a Graphing Calculator, you need to get one.
# Look at the new information on the AlgConn Web Page.
# Please note that the announcements have a listing of which computer labs are open and when, and where you can locate Graph Links to use around the building.

If you have questions or need some help, please see me, or one of your fellow students. See the Syllabus for information on how to get outside of class help.
