Dear Class:
We finished with Photoshop and "Faces" project last class. This consisted of taking two pictures from the internet (NBC.com) and 'melding' them together. You will be focusing on: selection tools; elliptical, lasso, and magic wand. You are also working with layers. We will talk about adding and subtracting from selections using the Option/Alt key and adding using the Shift key. I also wanted to talk further about the Edit/Free transform tool and the transform. Finally, I want to look at the Image/Adjustments and color/brightness/contrast.
Finally, I want two pictures done; one with faces (animate) and one with vehicles/other (inanimate).
We will get to "Girl in the Window" today. You will need the girl's picture and the Window picture.
We will do some basic stuff with these two pictures.
Sincerely,
Mr. Green-Hite

Dear Class:
We will finish the Landscape today. We will be working on the final three layers; the trees, roads, and hills. We will work with tints, hopefully, and more gradients and a huge emphasis on the pen tool. At the end of this in class activity, you need to e-mail the three tutorials we worked on (or share the three with me on ddhspages)that consist of the robot, the globe, and the landscape to me. Make sure the file names have your name on them. For instance, mine would be "green-hitelandscape"
I want you to do a tutorial on your own at: http://www.clippingimages.com/blog/2892tropical-transparency/
We will probably get to the exit project: The Cereal Box.

We will finishing everything we learned thus far together and produce a two page report on a technology item or concept of your choice. You will have to research it, have at least five sites you will rely on for the paper (you do not have to rely on all of them but you have to verify your information). You will have to provide a citation page for these. The research paper will be posted on turnitin.com and must have either a green or blue color. Yellow, orange, and yellow will not be accepted. If any papers are not accepted, it will result in an "F" grade. You will have to resubmit a new topic and do a completely new paper! I expect you to have most, if not all the research done today and have begun the introductory paragraph. The next class you will be doing your citations and working on the paper itself. Again, any copy and paste will be detected and dealt with...so don't do it! I would suggest you copy and paste the web site and any information you think you will use onto a word document and then synthesis it into your final research on a separate document.
This will be submitted at turnitin.com.

4. If you are all done then: Find 10 jobs that are IT related; make sure that includes the salaries, requirements for the job, and the website you got it from.
Citations for Web Pages. You will be going to the David Douglas High School Web Site and citing three web pages on the same word document. Go to the official high school web site at http://ddhs.ddouglas.k12.or.us/ and go to the media and library button. From there, go to the OSLIS button (We did this together when we did our searches). Go to the APA Citation link on the right side. You will use the “Internet, Web Page – Personal” for your personal one and then you have to figure out which citation you use for the two web sites I have provided. One will be for www.portlandmaps.com and one will be for an article in OSLIS and the final citation will be of your choice. When the citations are done, they will appear at the bottom. Copy and paste them in a blank document with the heading “Citations” with your name and class period at the bottom. This sheet will be printed and handed in!
Issues of Change PowerPoint. Look over. I will go over it on the screen with you. Find 10 jobs that are IT related; make sure that includes the salaries, requirements for the job, and the website you got it from.
The class is quite simple:
Today I need several things;
1. Two evaluations of web sites (see last period's instructions)
2. Six Citations (the two we did last period that included a citation for portlandmaps.com and one from OSLIS. The other four from your research on a technology subject of your choice.
3. A rough draft of your research paper. The paper is to be a minimum 1.5 to 2 pages in length, 12 pt time new roman font, side margins 1". Print this out; attach it on top of the six citations from above.
4. If you are all done then: Find 10 jobs that are IT related; make sure that includes the salaries, requirements for the job, and the website you got it from.
Citations for Web Pages. You will be going to the David Douglas High School Web Site and citing three web pages on the same word document. Go to the official high school web site at http://ddhs.ddouglas.k12.or.us/ and go to the media and library button. From there, go to the OSLIS button (We did this together when we did our searches). Go to the APA Citation link on the right side. You will use the “Internet, Web Page – Personal” for your personal one and then you have to figure out which citation you use for the two web sites I have provided. One will be for www.portlandmaps.com and one will be for an article in OSLIS and the final citation will be of your choice. When the citations are done, they will appear at the bottom. Copy and paste them in a blank document with the heading “Citations” with your name and class period at the bottom. This sheet will be printed and handed in!

We will have a discussion on these terms. These terms will be part of the vocabulary that you will have to know for a test. There will be 20 total words that you will have to define as well as the information from the timeline you will work on today.
The last assignment, which is a focus on “specific” items on the internet and “the lowest price” as search parameters, is meant to hone your skill even further.
The last of specifics for web searches will entail putting together the “Virtual Computer” (see below assignment; Should be finished today).
Class:
Please put together a “virtual” computer with the following configuration (you cannot have a pre-made computer; in other words, you cannot have Dell Computer put it together!)
You can get into groups of no more than 2 people per group
Find the following (each separately):
1 – 4 gig Ram
1 - 2.8 GHz Pentium dual core (or equivalent)
1 - DVD+/- RW double side Burner
1 – Blue Ray player
1 - TV Tuner Card
1 - Video Card with at least 512 MB DDR
1 - 22 inch flat panel Monitor HD (minimum measurement)
1 – Set of surround sound speakers for computer
1 – Case with motherboard that supports above
1 - 10/100 wireless network adapter
1 - Optical Mouse
1 - Wireless Keyboard
1 - Hard Drive with 500 GB; with at least 7200 rpm rated and 16 MB Buffer
1 - LaserJet Printer with color
1 – Wireless N card for internet
Please put cost together in a list for each and the total for all of it; copy the ad (using the print screen function) that you found it in, the price, and the web page address. The person with the lowest total price will win…extra credit!!!!!!
Finish the list the Internet PowerPoint. The end of the PowerPoint asks you to search for specific items; please find, copy the site you got it from, and e-mail me the results by 10:00!
Work on the bridges when done. This is the file under start, west point bridge building, and .exe file.

Furthermore, the first 13 words will be incorporated into a “virtual computer” that you will have to use the internet to search for each item, price them, and give me a final tally of what you “spent” on the hardware.
You should have sent me a copy of your finished work of the 'Online Research Planner' to me after you did a “save as”, rename with your last name and worksheet and e-mail it to me at jgreenhite@gmail.com. If I do not receive it today, it will be late and I will dock it 30% on the grade!
I want to take baby steps in research and then build to the actual research on the item you chose to research.
I talked of three types of "engines" to search with. I want you to use all three and report back to me your findings using my "surfing" sheet.

Furthermore, the first 13 words will be incorporated into a “virtual computer” that you will have to use the internet to search for each item, price them, and give me a final tally of what you “spent” on the hardware.
Introduction to students on the parameters of a search and internet.
http://hs.ddouglas.k12.or.us/ To go to this website, hold down the “Ctrl” key and click on the site.
We will go to the Library and Media Center, then to OSLIS, 'Learn How to do Research'. We will talk about 'defining' a term and then open 'Online Research Planner'. You will be filling this out based upon a targeted Research Paper that you will do that deals with technology. You will be researching a current technology area that interests you. For instance: nanotechnology, newest computer chips, robotics, metals technologies, "green" power generation, etc.
We will be starting with the basic parameters of research. We will be completing the worksheet by evaluating directories, search engines and metasearch engines. We will be using EBSCO Username: ddouglas
Password: ddhs
You will send me a copy of your finished work of the 'Online Research Planner' to me after you “save as”, rename with your last name and worksheet and e-mail it to me at jgreenhite@gmail.com
Sincerely,
Mr. Green-Hite

Dear Class:
I hope you enjoyed the weekend!
Always start the class by doing two things: Go to my web page and then to my blog with this information. Secondly, please open up your student account on the DDHS server. If you do not remember, go back to my web page and in the side bar, just down from the link to this blog, there is an area that shows you how to connect to the server. Make sure you have this open so you can save the below vocabulary to it.
(Where to save your documents: Your documents will be saved on the fileserver for this school. That fileserver can be logged on by going to “Start”, right click on “My Computer” and click on “Map Network Drive”. You will enter in “Z:” For your address, it will be \\10.52.254.110\ and then the last two number of the year you will graduate and then your last name first, first name last (I would suggest right clicking after selecting your year and name and “copy” it. When you enter this address, it will then prompt you for your id and password. Paste in the above and then enter your student number for the password.)
Create a folder entitled "Information Technology"
I want to make sure you have a gmail e-mail account. Even if you already have one, I want a new one. You are required to have a gmail account since we will be looking at how to use gmail documents. So, you need to create an account using ddhs...then your name.gmail.com. For example, if your name was Joe Brown, your account would be ddhsjoebrown@gmail.com.
After everyone has finished creating a gmail account, we will look at PowerPoint on Into to IT. Info Tech PP link
We will look at attaching files. When to ZIP a file and when not to and about compression and how to log on the server.
Rather than a link, I want you to copy the below website and then paste it into we web address box. To do so, triple click the line or select manually, hit control+C to copy and then create a new internet window and paste it in, either by holding the control key and pressing V or right clicking the mouse and click "paste".
http://computer.howstuffworks.com/file-compression.htm
This is an exercise and can be used to determine your grade by awarding points to those with it on their screens!
Now, please open up a word file. Put your name, the class, and the class period in the upper left hand margin. Please define the following terms and save them on your server account with the file name “last name first vocabulary”.
RAM
CPU
DVD burner
TV tuner card
Video Card
Make a folder entitled “Vocabulary”.
We will have a discussion on these terms. These terms will be part of the vocabulary that you will have to know for a test. There will be 20 total words that you will have to define as well as the information from the timeline you will work on today.
Furthermore, the first 13 words will be incorporated into a “virtual computer” that you will have to use the internet to search for each item, price them, and give me a final tally of what you “spent” on the hardware.
Introduce students to parameters of a search.

Dear Class:
Today is double assembly.
We will finish the "inanimate" picture today.
We started with Photoshop and "Faces" project last class. This consisted of taking two pictures from the internet (NBC.com) and 'melding' them together. You will be focusing on: selection tools; elliptical, lasso, and magic wand. You are also working with layers. We will talk about adding and subtracting from selections using the Option/Alt key and adding using the Shift key. I also wanted to talk further about the Edit/Free transform tool and the transform. Finally, I want to look at the Image/Adjustments and color/brightness/contrast.
Finally, I want two pictures done; one with faces (animate) and one with vehicles/other (inanimate).

Dear Class:
We had almost finished the manufacturing worksheet: Manufacturing Process worksheet
I would like to do one more thing before we ascend into CS3 Illustrator and that is to look at basic machine language using a short worksheet. You will have to "translate" a few bits on information on the worksheet.
If you get done early, please open CS3 Illustrator and look at the basic layout of the menu and the toolbars. We will start with a "robot".
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask me.
Sincerely,
Mr. Green-Hite

We will finishing everything we learned thus far together and produce a two page report on a technology item or concept of your choice. You will have to research it, have at least five sites you will rely on for the paper (you do not have to rely on all of them but you have to verify your information). You will have to provide a citation page for these. The research paper will be posted on turnitin.com and must have either a green or blue color. Yellow, orange, and yellow will not be accepted. If any papers are not accepted, it will result in an "F" grade. You will have to resubmit a new topic and do a completely new paper! I expect you to have most, if not all the research done today and have begun the introductory paragraph. The next class you will be doing your citations and working on the paper itself. Again, any copy and paste will be detected and dealt with...so don't do it! I would suggest you copy and paste the web site and any information you think you will use onto a word document and then synthesis it into your final research on a separate document.
This will be submitted at turnitin.com. We will set your account up today with the class id 3176608. Class is Infotech 2010 and the password is ddhsinfotech. I have it set so that the drop dead submittal date is 3-11-10 at 3:00 p.m.
I can only give you the first half of the period to complete these!

Dear Class:
I am unable to be at school today but I am sure you will help the substitute by doing the following:
Today we will not have any vocabulary. However, as promised, you have a quiz on the words from last time. I went over the definitions with you so there should be no surprises. So...take the quiz.
Please open the Copyright law link to the PowerPoint with a powerpoint and then you fill out a worksheet and hand it in.
Finally, with the time left, we are going to put everything we learned thus far together and produce a two page report on a technology item or concept of your choice. You will have to research it, have at least five sites you will rely on for the paper (you do not have to rely on all of them but you have to verify your information).

Go to the APA Citation link on the right side. You will use the “Internet, Web Page – Personal” for your personal one and then you have to figure out which citation you use for the two web sites I have provided. One will be for www.portlandmaps.com and one will be for file:///E:/Qualitative%20Class%20GFU/FullText(2).html and the final citation will be of your choice. When the citations are done, they will appear at the bottom. Copy and paste them in a blank document with the heading “Citations” with your name and class period at the bottom.

Questions that will come up:
Students: “Mr. Green-Hite, now that I know how to find my information from going from general to specific through searches, how do I evaluate that information, how do I cite that information, and how do I make sure I don’t run foul of plagiarism?” Mr. Green-Hite replies, “Kids, those are all good questions and one that we will be looking at beginning today and continuing on into next week!”
Find two sites that are more "subject to interpretation" and evaluate them using the evaluation sheet attached. I will go over what is generally on a web page and how to look for it.
See attached for the “Evaluating Internet Resources”. You will be doing two of them evaluating two web pages of your choice. This time, please print them out and hand them in!
Citations for Web Pages. We will be going to the David Douglas High School Web Site and citing two web pages on the same word document. Go to the official high school web site at http://ddhs.ddouglas.k12.or.us/ and go to the media and library button. We will go over this together. This sheet will be printed and handed in as well!

We will have a discussion on these terms. These terms will be part of the vocabulary that you will have to know for a test. There will be 20 total words that you will have to define as well as the information from the timeline you will work on today.
The last assignment, which is a focus on “specific” items on the internet and “the lowest price” as search parameters, is meant to hone your skill even further.
The last of specifics for web searches will entail putting together the “Virtual Computer” (see below assignment; Should be finished today).
Class:
Please put together a “virtual” computer with the following configuration (you cannot have a pre-made computer; in other words, you cannot have Dell Computer put it together!)
You can get into groups of no more than 2 people per group
Find the following (each separately):
1 – 4 gig Ram
1 - 2.8 GHz Pentium dual core (or equivalent)
1 - DVD+/- RW double side Burner
1 – Blue Ray player
1 - TV Tuner Card
1 - Video Card with at least 512 MB DDR
1 - 22 inch flat panel Monitor HD (minimum measurement)
1 – Set of surround sound speakers for computer
1 – Case with motherboard that supports above
1 - 10/100 wireless network adapter
1 - Optical Mouse
1 - Wireless Keyboard
1 - Hard Drive with 500 GB; with at least 7200 rpm rated and 16 MB Buffer
1 - LaserJet Printer with color
1 – Wireless N card for internet
Please put cost together in a list for each and the total for all of it; copy the ad (using the print screen function) that you found it in, the price, and the web page address. The person with the lowest total price will win…extra credit!!!!!!
Work on the bridges when done. This is the file under start, west point bridge building, and .exe file.

A warning will be given in the first instance. After that, I will make a notation in the grade book of non-participation and deduct points.
When you come into class, please turn on the computers. To find out what we are covering during any given class day, I should have it posted on the blog.
Assignments Due: If you are absent, please look at the day in which you were absent to see what you missed. You have the number of days you were absent to make up missed work unless you get special permission to do otherwise.
How to access today’s assignment: Go to “http://ddhsinfotech.blogspot.com”.
Printers: Be familiar where your computer prints to. Do not print more than once! Any printing other than for school or this class will cost 25 cents per page.
Where to save your documents: Your documents will be saved on the fileserver for this school. That fileserver can be logged on by going to “Start”, right click on “My Computer” and click on “Map Network Drive”. You will enter in “Z:” (unless you are an upperclassman and use the “H:” drive instead).

When you enter this address, it will then prompt you for your id and password. Paste in the above and then enter your student number for the password. We will be doing that today in class
Where to send your completed documents: Final documents will be submitted to my e-mail at jgreenhite@gmail.com. Your first assignment will be to create a yahoo account with your first initial, last name and then DDHS@gmail.com.
The class will begin by investigating what is in a computer and how it works using terminology. We will begin with what is in a computer in general. As we are doing that, we will look at the internet . We will then proceed with the basic aspects computer architecture and IT careers, programming, operating systems applications, application architecture, Internet and emerging technologies.
First, I would like you to answer the questions on the blog and submit them.
You are required to have a gmail account since we will be looking at how to use gmail documents. So, you need to create an account using ddhs...then your name.gmail.com.
