PowerPoint Games: Day Three

You have received grades for the 5 assignments you have completed so far this semester:
Resume, Standards Questions, Productivity Tools, iMovie, and Inspiration. Your iMovie and Inspiration assignments can be resubmitted by the beginning of class on Tuesday if you made below an 80. Please make sure to ask questions today if you have concerns about your grade for this course.

Several of you have used your late pass on previous assignments. However, there are still several assignments left in the course (see the bottom of this blog). Remember that if you participate in the portfolio research conducted by Maggie Hu, you will be given another late pass. Participation includes a one-hour interview about your webpage construction during this class. If you are interested, please email her directly at maggiehu.china@gmail.com

Today is a day reserved to work on your PowerPoint game and get questions answered. In order to be counted present for class -- you must be here working on your project until at least 12:00. You are, of course, welcome to stay as long as you need.

Here are some links that will help you with what was covered in class on Friday:

Creating the headquarters to access your question slides

FOR TUESDAY:
1. Continue working on your game - it is due Wednesday, June 28 at the beginning of class. Review the project description to make sure you are doing all that is required.
2. Save a backup copy of your game as you work on it - it would be terrible to lose what you have created!
3. We will not be working on PowerPoint games during tomorrow's class. We will begin a new project called "WebQuests" which will be due at the end of the week. You can review the remaining projects for this semester by going to the EDIT 2000 Projects page.
