Vocabulary 2 is due today!!!! Please send it to me at jgreenhite@gmail.com. Do not forget, we will have a quiz on these terms in your vocabulary!
I want two evaluations! They are due today...drop dead time.
See attached for the “Evaluating Internet Resources”. You will be doing two of them evaluating two web pages of your choice.
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.
Sincerely,
Mr. Green-Hite

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!

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.

Quiz on the above 20 words will take place on Monday, February, 14, in the year of 2011...Happy Valentine's Day!!!!
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.
With that in mind, we will look at 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!
The last of specifics for web searches will entail putting together the “Virtual Computer” (see attached assignment; probably will not have time for).

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.
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 want you to go to Class Survey Link
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".

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.
