<strong>Main Report or Narrative: </strong>Again I only worked two days this week since Tuesday was veteran's day and there was no school.  On Monday, Russ, Mr. Miller, another teacher and I lead a tutorial on using Voicethread to make presentations as part of a "digital storytelling" activity we want to run in the school.  It went alright, but after doing it we all pretty much agreed that it would be better to simply teach them powerpoint, so now we're going to set up a larger initiative doing that.  The idea is to get the kids to storyboard something and then put it into a presentation (I think we'll call it a "movie") where they tell a story.  Should be interesting.

Other than that, I've been working on a teacher's computer today setting up some priveledges that were messed up somehow.  Still waiting on the new computers though so things are still pretty quiet around here.  We haven't gotten any additional information about them, so at this point I just hope they're coming... the computers in the lab at this point work "well enough" to use, and trying to do anything more with them is pretty futile.
