Signing Up for Stuff

Welcome Crazies!
Please use the written instructions and/or the video tutorials below to accomplish the task of "signing up for stuff".
1) Ediscio: It's a website where you can study interactive flash cards that have been made and assigned to you by your teacher. This will be a great way for you to review concepts throughout the year. It is also used so that I can give you feedback on certain assignments. You are going to sign up for an account, join the Crazy 8 2010-11 Class, and "chum up" with me, your teacher. (Then I can give you feedback on stuff..... we don't have to be "buds" if you don't want to be, but we do have to be "chums".) The video tutorial is on the "Memorial Science Vodcasts" wikispace.

2) The Blog:
Now let's use this site -- our Crazy 8 Science Blog. This blog is a place where people (like us and your parents and the rest of the world) can take a look at what we've been doing in science class. It's my way of bragging about the excellent students we have at this school and on this Crazy 8 team. Many times during the year, I will have you post a comment on a blog post.... which shall be called your "blog response". The post below this one contains a couple of questions I'd like you to answer to practice this "blog response". To do this correctly, again follow the video tutorial (on the wikispace) and/or read the written instructions below.
-- Go to the post, titled "Nice to meet you, Crazy 8s". (It's just below this one.) Leave your comment on that post. Awesome.

3) Wikispaces: Click on the "My wikispaces" button along the left side of this page. It will bring you to our "Memorial Science Vodcasts", which is where all of the instructional vodcasts will be located and viewed from. You probably didn't know this, but you have a wikispace account already! Your username is your first initial and last name (no spaces). The password is your student ID number.

4) Our Science Website: There is is link for our science website on the upper left part of this page. This will be a place where you can find a tentative schedule for our class. If you're unsure about what will be going on during a given week, check out the schedule here.
