Just to make the goals public for you I am listing them below. Please respond to this blog and simply state which numbers you need to work on. Please have the first draft in by next Wednesday.
I am very happy to see the progress we are making so far. Keep up the great work.
So, as we have discussed last night, you can be working on the following:
1) Printing off and reading articles (you should have at minimum 10 now)
2) Should have a cover page and table of contents
3) Including 5 articles into your paper as of now (reference and referring to)
4) PPT should be an appendix
5) A webspiration mind-map should be there
6) A sketch should be there with components and materials listed
7) A materials section should be there
8) You should have been making contributions on the blog
9) You should be well over 500 words now (put word total on cover page)
10) Hand this to me by April 1 as a preliminary draft
You can use the following to grade it:
Name: ___________________________________
Class: _______________
Date: _______________
1) ___/10 articles = ____/10
2) Cover page with word total (5) and contents (5) = _____/10
3) 5 articles (2 pts each) = ____/10
4) PPT in appendix exported to word. Yes/No = 0 or 10 / 10
5) Webspiration mind-map. Yes/No = 0 or 10 / 10
6) Sketch included somewhere in paper. Yes/No = 0 or 10 / 10
7) Materials section. 3 pts for title/6 pts for some elaboration/ 10 for a thorough
preliminary job = 0 or 3 or 6 or 10 / 10
8) Have you made contributions to the blog? Yes/No = 0 or 10 / 10
9) 0 words = 0. 100-300 words = 6. 300-500 = 8. 500+ = 10/10. _____/10
10) Handed in on time. Yes/No = 0 or 10 / 10
Total = ______/ 100
Keep this in your research log when finished

Richard Week 6 Read and Reflect
Good afternoon guys,
This week I would like you to continue building up your Reading Portfolio. Find another couple of articles on similar (but not the same) technology topics.
How do the topics of the two articles relate to each other?
What do you know about the background to the technologies (history, geography, materials etc.)? What would you like to find out?
Choose three words (in total) from your two articles that you did not know, or did not know well.
What are they, why are they important in the article (s)?
I look forward to reading your comments.

WRITE A PAPER USING WEBSPIRATION
Go to webspiration, and open the template "WRITE A PAPER USING WEBSPIRATION" and start to put ideas you have for your term paper here.
When you are done, do two things:
1) copy and paste your draft version here (even if it is not finished) I want to see how far you are getting. Include the list of references (readings) that you have thus far.
2) paste this document into Google Docs, and add me as a collaborator. My e-mail is stephen.pellerine@hct.ac.ae so you can just copy and paste this.
Enjoy
Steve
