Do now web 2.0 writing prompt

You are the teacher; which class would you add to our school curriculum that we don’t already have?
When would the class meet, what would the students do? What would it look like, feel like, and sound like?  And what would the students produce to show/demonstrate their learning?
         A class i would introduce to the curriculum is video gaming sessions. The class will meet last period every 3 out of 5 days because last period is the most relaxing period and when you play a game you should be relaxed. What would the students do? the students will be grouped up in teams of four and will have to vs other team of four students to win. If you win the game you get ten points if you loose you get 5. The objective of the game is to work together so survive in a hunger game like game where you will have to work together inorder to play this will form bonds among students. What would it feel like? it will be relaxing the students will be set up with eight computers at a time in an enviorment they feel suitable.There is no screaming at eachother aloud or cursing so students can feel good.
        What would the students produce or demostrate their learning? first gaming helps hand eye cordinating and opens the mind to more imagination. The students will be tested on how well they work together to win the game. The key objective in this curriculum is to bring students closer and to show that together as a team you can win. By playing a twenty min match the students will talk among themselvs on how they can work together. Every two weeks the student will have a test against another team on not if they win but they will get points on how well they work together. If one student is not working together with the other three he will fail. The students will choose the game they want to play it would either be a surviving game to teach them how to survive or a non violent game that they can work together in.

web 2.0: Wiki Research

1. How can a wiki be used in a current class on your schedule (not this course)? Pick a class and be specific how the class could create and use a Wiki on a regular basis (tip: Use the Internet, here is a good source).                                                                                                                                   A1: Wiki can be used in my world history class. Ms. Garvin always gives group projects where you don't get alot of class time to do it so you have to finish it at home and work with your partner. This can be a task for some groups that live far away for example if a Wood-Ridge student gets paired up with a moonachie student. They don't live near each other to go over their house and do it together so they need a method to work together easily. A wiki can be a good idea if they need to get work together done. In a wiki they both can edit the page and add their ideas.
2. What are the benefits of using a wiki in class?                                                                                           A2: the benefits of using a wiki in class is getting students to come together to work on a same page that they can edit together. A wiki in class can help educational learning.
3. How can we create a wiki in this class, what would we contribute to it and how would we utilize it on an on-going basis?                                                                                                                                  A3: We can create a wiki in this class by going on a website that offers free wiki domains. Every day going around the circle a student would add a question after class on what the don't understand, the next day the next student answers it using edit.
4. What experience do you have using or creating wikis                                                                              A4: In Ms. Garvin's class the students are paired up in groups of two and make a wiki using wikidot.com

My weekend

On Friday Wood-Ridge varsity football had a game vs Harrison. As part of the team I was there. I had my football gear on and I was very cold. In a 14-7 win we beat Harrison. Saturday was a easy day, I rested and played Xbox with friends we played alot of diffrent kinds of games on my xbox 360 and xbox one. Also, I played hide and seek in the dark with my brothers. Sunday i went to church in the morning with my mom and brothers and on the ride back we got pizza. We then went to my cousins birthday party it was fun. At the party there was a vanilla cake that was shaped as a football. All my family was at the family and i even met some family that i never met. Sunday night i prepared for my football game on Monday and got all of my homework done and studied for my quiz.

Project Leviathan

A group of students from the university of sherbrooke in canada are working on a watercraft vehicle to break world records.

Project Leviathan is estimated to go at a speed of 23 miles per hour on water.

The team has spent a total of $30,000 dollars on this project.

The watercraft is controlled by a pedaling system similar to a bike

The vehicle is powered by human pedaling that drives a propeller in the water, the twin hulled-craft with two wings to gain speed.

The first test run will be in 2015.
