                  • Hi!  How was yesterday?  I have a message for everyone who 'couldn't work', didn't have anything to edit, or had simple technical problems while I was gone yesterday...
                    • "Wake Up"
                    • Think about what was going on around you yesterday. Remember all those kids who were editing video and not losing their work? Most of them are the same kids who paid attention and tried hard to do a good how-to video using all the time allowed. That's when they learned all that stuff - just as we planned.
                    • Remember - no matter what your grade now, or how much I like you - if you don't turn in a Feature Video you will fail the second semester of Digital Literacy.
                    • Just sayin'
                  • You have an exit ticket at the end of today's class - heaven help you if you try to mischaracterize you work level today.
