Several tasks need to be completed today:-
- Your drinking water podcast is to be used by German students for their radio show. However,they may not understand a lot of what we say and also may have trouble with our accents. Therefore, we need to provide our scripts. How shall we do that?
- You can listen to the podcast here.
- A group of young US students are going to their state capital to share how they use technology. They would like you to complete some questions for them. Goto this survey and fill in your answers.
- After your time blogging and surfing in Apollo Bay, it is hoped that you will keep up the connections. Please write a post summarizing what you did that day, what were the highlights, what did you learn and general reflections. Then goto the Student Public drive, find some photos that summarize the day – you will need to choose group photos or photos that do not show faces and create a collage using fotor. Add this to your blog post and publish.
