Science in the News is a weekly assignment that will keep you in the loop on current topics occurring in the world that are related to what we are learning in class.
How this works:
New article will be posted weekly
Read the article, write a brief summary, and define a unique word from the article (unique being nobody else has chosen it yet)
Comment on somebody else's post
Your grade for this is dependent on your participation
Relate what you know/what we are learning in class to the article. Don't comment superficially.
Expectations:
This is an on-line forum but your behavior within it is to be the same as expected in the classroom
No derogatory language, put-downs, harassing, etc.
Disciplinary action will be taken if these expectations are not met
