Welcome to Instructional Technology 8. This is a non-homework class.
This is a project-based learning class where you will use the computer to learn about managing your money with a banking program called "Saving Makes Cents." You will have the opportunity to open a savings account (if you do not already have one) and learn how starting to save will allow you to reach your future goals, whatever they may be! After this nine-week course, you will be able to:
Touch type at an improved level;
Explain and demonstrate understanding of classroom rules regarding responsible use of computers;
Use correct terminology in speaking about electronic communications;
Use a spreadsheet to chart and solve financial problems;
Compose citations for web pages using Citation Maker;
Use search engines and demonstrate ethical behavior in copying files, applications, and media; and
Prepare a slide show using Presentations.
These are just some of the things you will learn this quarter.
Feel free to email me if you have any questions.
