Day 12 Canvas, Copyright laws, Storytelling, Web Portfolio

Day 12

Dr. Sang Joon Lee  introduced us to Canvas. I emailed my school's administrators to find out if we were using Canvas. The reply was that we would use 'Schoology' as an LMS. Mr. Smith offered to get me on the training list so I could help train the staff when school starts! We created a Canvas account for our GAETI course. Before lunch we had a lesson on Copyrights. The main things with using copyrighted material:  use should be for educational purposes, cite the author, use 10% or less of the work.

I started cutting out shaps in Arts and Crafts today. I cut out three of the 22 shapes. At this rate I will finish cutting 7 days from now!

We returned to the lab to learn more about Canvas. We created a Storify account and our story was about BYOD. We learned how to embed videos and URLs. We used our story as a reply to Dr. Lee's question in Canvas.

We returned to our Weebly web page and learned how to add pages and insert links. We placed a link to our Storify story on the Technology page.

My webpage looks fairly sad. I hope there is time to improve it!  I read a quote today that went something like this:  "Done is better than perfect." I need to work on internalizing this philosophy!
