Agenda
"The mind is like a parachute; it only works when
it is open!"
Amanda is not sure who said this
1. Site
of the Day
2. Check out the homeroom module "Evaluation
of Web Sites for Children"
3. To make your lesson interactive consider doing one
or more of the following:
- make a page like the Emu quiz
- make a quiz like our publishing one
- make a quiz with the pulldown menus
5. Important message from Craig:
I was surprised today to find out that there are CUIP WIT participants who think they can get a stipend even though they have not met the requirements for Lane Credit in the program.
No stipends will be awarded unless the participant has "successfully completed" the requirements for WIT as spelled out in the WIT Basic and WIT Advanced Intro Modules.

http://cuip.uchicago.edu/wit/2000/curriculum/homeroommodules/witadvintro/geninfo.htm
Also, no stipends will be paid unless CUIP has received complete W-4 and I-9 forms (along with required documentation) by June 21, 2000. Neither CUIP nor the Graham School will take responsibility for tracking your documentation down after WIT ends!!!
You may turn in your W-4 and I-9 forms to me on Friday the 21st. If you bring a photocopy of both sides of your ID (driver's license and social security card or US passport), that will save us all some time and effort.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Today's To Do List
1. Assess
your progress frequently.
2. Don't forget...the lab next door is available for
your use every afternoon!
