Week 3 - Using Computers to Communicate With Each Other

Hi everyone
This is the week we sign up for Session 2 of Summer School. We'll do this in class June 17 and 18. You can add classes next week, on June 26 and 27,

in the A & E Office on the 1st floor.

After we do that, let's use an online program called Voicethread. I've posted this picture online, and you will learn how to comment on it. 

First, you must have an email account. 
Next, you need to register for Voicethread. 
[If you have done this before, and you know the email and password you used, please sign in.]

Finally, sign in to your Voicethread account. Look for  these Voicethreads the teacher made. Comment on them. We'll practice in class.

a. Cat in the Bag

b. The Retirees
