1) Geo Exam

b) Having trouble printing the 3 worksheets above? Well, try printing the worksheets this way. Click here and print out handouts to the next unit.
c) How can worksheets fit on to a page?
i) Click above on specific link to a worksheet
ii) Once a new window appears with the worksheet, scroll over the worksheet with mouse, right click and then copy worksheet.
iii) Paste copied worksheet onto new document using microsoft word or powerpoint.
iv) Next, use mouse to stretch worksheet to fit on the entire page.
v)Print
d) Still, having problems? Try your best. If you cannot manage, call someone in class and politely ask if they could print out extra copies for you. On the flipside, if you can print out the worksheets without a problem it would be generous of you to print out an extra set or two of worksheets for those who have problems printing the worksheets out. Those who are in need of worksheets would be MORE than willing to return the favor to those who bring an extra set or two of worksheets.
e) Finally, if your are reading this and still cannot figure out how to print out the worksheets do NOT stress out. Simply come to class and ask Mr. P (when he is free) or some of his tech assistants to demonstrate how to print out worksheets so that you can do it in the future.
WEDNESDAY Sept 20, 2006
1) Nader's Island
2) Intro to Auto & Demo
HW
a) Click here and print out handouts to the next unit. Start to work on Autocracy vs Democracy Terms
b) Sketch's wonderful website reviews the terms for Autocracy & Democracy. However, Sketch was a tricky one sometimes. She might have purposely placed wrong information in some of her definitions for the Autocracy & Democracy terms. In addition, avoid being an academic robot and be sure to write the terms using your own words. Students cannot and should not want to compete with copy machines. Hence, do not just copy definitons onto your worksheet. In short, be a human, think, look up definitions from various sources (Sketch's website and your book are only two sources) and then write the definitions for each term in your own words. This is pretty basic stuff. Good luck and have fun thinking!
c) Bring an egg to class tomorrow and ask Mr P to demonstrate Eggs in the Balance.
