September 27, 2010. With the Super-Power Assignment out of the way, it's time to flip open a new chapter! Today in class, Mr. Arkin showed us the different types of lists; ordered, unordered and definition. He also showed us how to write proper references. I found out that we were going to need all that he taught us as he explained the next assignment, we were supposed to make a Glossary of all the words we studied so far. Mr. Arkin told us to pair off and start working on informal definitions of all our terms. When we finished, we would look for the proper (or at least the most understandable) definition on the internet.
It sounds easy? Well, there's a catch. We have to use at least 5 different sources and take a even number of definitions from each site. In class, I only got enough time to start on the web searching part.
For homework, we have to write our daily blog, make a validated glossary skeleton, and download and sign up for dropbox. Which is like an electronic USB key!
