10/2 - 10/3 Class Update

Yesterday in history, we read about George Washington and the French and Indian War. My group never actually got past the first page... (we liked Governor Robert Dinwiddie's name too much). However, from what Mr. Boyle told us, we found out that the British ultimately won but King George III made some decisions that the colonists didn't like too much and made them angry about being ruled from 3000 miles away.

Today, we worked on our Google Presentations on our EdCafe topics. My group started getting frustrated at how many times we had to refresh the page- automatic saving isn't a good thing as far as working on school computers goes. We each worked on two of the six sections from our event profiles. I liked how we worked on a group presentation, but I don't think Google Drive is the best choice for doing it at school. It took us a long time to type one word, and we ultimately ended up writing everything in Microsoft Word and copy and pasting it into the presentation, which still took a long time but slightly less.
