  Writing 3: June 13th

  Posted: June 12th, 2008, 8:16am EDT by Rick

  Last week, we didn't have much time to work on "Essay" 4, a presentation about Kumamoto, but you did have a chance to start thinking about the topic, and to experiment with Keynote and/or PowerPoint. This week, we'll start serious work on the presentation. Key points are:
  

  1. Save the work you do, preferably in at least 2 ways/places;*
  2. 5 slides minimum, and about 10 slides maximum;
  3. You can base your presentation on Essay 2, or do something a little different;
  4. You shouldn't have long paragraphs on your slides. It's better to use small amounts of text and some images;
  5. Because the amount of text is small, please make sure it's well-written!

  If time allows, I'll show you how to sign up for SlideShare, the service we will use to put the presentation into our blogs.
  
  * Please save images and notes as well as your presentation file. In the future, we may use those again to present the information with your voice.
  
  One other thing: I had forgotten all about the "Word Count" widget, but was reminded about it when I saw it on a few students' blogs. I recommend that you install it in your blog footer; then you can count the words in your posts easily.

  Euro 2008

  Posted: June 12th, 2008, 6:49am EDT by Rick

  The Euro 2008 football tournament is proving to be quite exciting. Teams that are generally considered very defensive, such as Italy and Greece, have lost their first matches, while attacking teams like Holland have been doing very well. There have been some major upsets, such as Holland's 3-0 victory over Italy, and last night's defeat by Croatia of Turkey. Unfortunately, not many matches are on terrestrial TV channels, so I have only seen one match so far. Tonight, another two matches will be on TV, featuring Holland, France, Romania, and Italy.
