Harte Elementary
Tech / Project
Wednesday and Friday: 1:30-3:30.

Things are going well at Harte.  On Wednesday I installed some interactive powerpoint program that Ms. Evans hopes to implement.  (I forget the name of it, but it has a remote sensor and the students use remote controls to answer questions on slideshows).  I also did some general maintenace work, and found out that Ms. Parks still has yet to pull the trigger on a new printer.  Several of the teachers are getting very anxious about this, so I hope Ms. Parks will come through (though I try not to pressure her).

Today (Friday) I talked with Ms. Allen about doing a project for the tech expo, and she recommended me to three very tech-savvy students.  <strong><em>We have a project lined up!</strong> </em> They want to do some sort of weblog / newspaper type of idea, as well as conduct a political survey across the school and organize it into a power point.  I'll also talk to Ms. Goosby, because I know her class is organizing fake trips around the world and researching things online.   

I will have much more specific details about our project after I meet with the students again next Wednesday.

Thanks!

Bryan
