Week 3 Assignment

I was a little confused on the inventory described in the Rubric because the book doesn't give a detailed outline of what's expected nor does it really explain each category for the inventory. Here a few links to web pages that expand on website content inventory. If you look in the book at the reference at the bottom of page 34 I got some of the information from Crotty Fraser.

Week 2 assignment

It seems like a lot of people are confused about the week 2 assignment. I know it is due tomorrow night, but maybe we could contribute what each of us do understand about the assignment and by the time we are done, we will have a comprehensive idea of what to do. Include any specific questions you have as well.


 * Understandings:**


 * Questions:**

I feel dumb but I still can't understand if I am supposed to do the project charter for my actual school or for the school site mentioned in the video.

The syllabus lists two books that we need to purchase: Solomon, G., & Schrum, L. (2007). Web 2.0: New tools, new schools. Eugene, OR: International Society for Technology in Education. (ISBN: 9781564842343 1564842347) Kaiser, S. E. (2006). Deliver first class web sites: 101 essential checklists. Collingwood, Vic: SitePoint. (ISBN: 0975841904 9780975841907)

Couldn't find these books anywhere except through amazon.com and Barnes and Noble.com. Looks like I'll be cramming my reading in when the books arrive. Seems like they would have given us a heads up last week at the end of the other course that we needed these books and they would probably have to be ordered.

Luckily, I read the syllabus on Saturday last week and I ordered the 101 essential checklists from Amazon before it became backordered. Also, I signed up for the free one month trial of Amazon Prime so I got free two day shipping. It came on Tuesday. I still think I'll take advantage of the deadline extension though. There is a lot of reading and the assignment seems pretty detailed. Tammy
