The week of buttons...

What a tough time some of my students have had this week trying to get their buttons to navigate properly. I wish I had better trouble-shooting skills with the action scripts. I have two teams that are at a standstill. I finally had to contact my mentor and she is looking them over. Hope she can locate the problem for us.

FYI, PLC meetings are great!

Our county has implemented a way for the Globaloria teachers to meet once a month after school to discuss our work and share ideas. This Professional Learning Community or PLC has been of such benefit to our Logan County team of six Globaloria educators. Although five of us are new to the project and one is a returning veteran, we all learn from each other and enjoy the time spent together.

My reason for posting this information is that I think this idea is one that others in the program may want to try. If anyone would like more information, please feel free to contact me or any of the other Globaloria teacher in our county.

Newer computers=more efficient work in class!

What a difference the right equipment makes in trying to get the job done! How I wish that our Globaloria students could have had access to the newer computers all year. Who knows we may have been ahead of the rest of the teams throughout the state/nation with computers that actually worked! At any rate, we are so happy to have them and the kids are burnin' them up with the amount of stuff they are now producing. I am so proud of these kids. I'm thinking about having them download the free trial version of Flash to use on their home computers. This may help them to get caught up and at least have a chance to finish and submit their work in the game competition.
