Assignments on the Blog

I have made a number of assignments on the blog. That is the best way I have to communicate with you. At least those o you who read the class blog!

Here is my list of those added assignments. Have you done them all?

1. Vocaroo
2. Another Questionnaire - CLOSED If you did not do it, it is too late.
3. Some More Words of Wisdom (AND AN ASSIGNMENT) From Dr. Scott Mcleod
4. How's My A? - CLOSED If you did not do it, it is too late.
5. Grades You were not REQUIRED to comment, but I would like for you to if you have anything useful to contribute. If you don't no need to leave a comment.
6. Midterm Reflection If you did not complete this you should consult with your lab instructor or me immediately. Open for Class H until 9:00 pm 3/25/10. CLOSED for all others (but if you have not done it and read this post before 9 pm tonight, do it. It will help a little bit.
7. How's Your A? Some of You Won't Make it Through the 3rd Grade! ou were not REQUIRED to comment, but I would like for you to if you have anything useful to contribute. If you don't no need to leave a comment.
8. Too Much Time? Required and still open until Thursday 4/1/10 at 9:00 pm.
9. Honest Reflection is Required - A New Assignment. Still open. Although comments can continue to be left (and I do want us all to continue the conversation), this assignment will be considered late for all initial comments after 9 pm Thursday April 1, 2010.
10. You have to have a working link on your blog to the class blog.
11. You have to have a working link on your blog that automatically opens a message area correctly addressed to your email.
12. You have to be regularly adding pictures and working links (where appropriate) to your blog.
13. The images added must be compliant with accessibility requirements and must reveal the source of the image when you hover the cursor over the image. How do you test to see whether these work? Hold the cursor over the image on this post. After about 15 seconds a little window will pop up and say Source: Google images. Lots of websites. It will disappear in another 15 seconds or so. You cannot directly check the alt tag information but you can indirectly check it. Open your blog in Firefox (or this blog). You should have the WAVE installed. OK, even though this is on the spreadsheet Preparing for Your Intellectual Journey in line 13, here is the link: Wave Accessibility Tool. You can either put in a URL or you can install the Firefox toolbar. Download the Firefox tool. You will have to click Allow (upper right) and restart Firefox. Then the WAVE tool will be in the toolbar of Firefox. Click on Errors, Features and Alerts. If you have done the alt modifier correctly, there will be a green triangle with alt in it by every image of yours. If you have not done it correctly, it will be red. If you scroll down to the post on this blog with a picture of the human brain you will see that I have done neither the alt nor the title (used for Source) modifiers. Full instructions are included in the Syllabus on pp.12, 13, 20, 21. OK, Here's the link you need to Blogger Lesson 2 ALT and TITLE and more. You can listen to it all, or you can wait for it to load and start listening at 5:50. That will save you almost 6 minutes of your 9 hours for EDM310!
14. You must have an RSS feed for the class blog either on your blog or your iGoogle Page.
15. You should be using Delicious. It is a VERY valuable tool.
