      1. If you did the homework, post your answers in Google Classroom.
        1. Mr. Smith will do his best to answer your questions before you return on Thursday.
        2. No questions submitted after 2:35 will earn credit, as it will be assumed you are writing them in class.
    2. Project 3: CRITIQUES!
      1. Grades were placed in SchoolMax on the 22nd.
        1. Some of you did quite well!
        2. Some of you thought the school year ended on the 16th.
    3. Project 4:
      1. Approved rubrics are here.
        1. EVERY single student that waited until the last moment to submit a rubric surprisingly did not have their rubric approved due to missing information.
      2. If your rubric is not approved, you will be working on the following project:
        1. Interland Review
        2. Only the 1st part involves playing the game. You will need enough time to create a well-thought critique. If you're still playing the game next week you will have a difficult time completing the required work.
    4. Homework Review:
      1. 5-17: Write 3 technology related questions for Mr. Smith to answer. Ideally, these should be questions that cannot be answered with a simple Google search. (We have Google for Google searches.)
      2. 5-21: Most classes tell you what your projects should be, rather than letting you design them. What are the pros and cons of having you work on designing your own projects this Quarter?
  6. HOMEWORK
    1. 5-23: Write 3 MORE technology related questions for Mr. Smith to answer. Ideally, these should be questions that cannot be answered with a simple Google search. (We have Google for Google searches.)
