Subject: AlgConn Update for the week of September 27, 1999 Date: Mon, 27 Sep 1999 07:20:50 -0500 From: "David A. Young" AlgConn Update for the week of September 27, 1999 8. Journal Prompt for the Week of September 27, 1999: Do you think we should have allowed some people the opportunity to "fix" low scoring items from their Pre Portfolio? Why? Your PrePortfolio was due Monday September 20. Once you get it back, calculate your grade and email it to me. If you made corrections, repeat the process on the Corrected PrePortfolio. Once you are finished with the Portfolio, return it to me for safe keeping. The next one is due very soon! Your Progress Report Grade will come totally from your Portfolio. This week: # Turn in your 70 a,b Part II, TV Ratings. Due Tuesday 9-28. # Continue work on the PreTest, POST review. # Go to the Computer Lab: Tuesday (9-28 room 2204) for Lab Visit V, and Friday (10-1 room 2204) for Lab Visit VI. # Check your grades on the Grade Viewer. Recall that your grade in AlgConn will come totally from your next Portfolio. # Set your GW password and Email me from Home (or other location) using the Internet (http://gw.fayar.net). # Write in your Journal. The Journal will contain ALL your writings throughout the year. # Place things in your H:/ drive (Home Directory). # Books are here! We will start in them this week. (Classroom set only) # Check past Updates, and email me if you did not get this from me directly. # We will have our first Major Examination on Monday and Tuesday of next week. # If you don't have a Graphing Calculator, you need to get one. # Next week you will receive the Fodder II list, from which you may build your next Portfolio. 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. -- David A.
