Class Procedures and Reminders
Project Stack. I'll look for incoming projects periodically today, so you can check the stack to make sure I received your form. The sooner you get your project turned in, the sooner you'll get comments back.
Extra credit. As always, I recommend the extra credit options, especially the Tech Tips (there are tips for Blogger, Canvas, all kinds of things). You can use extra credit to make up for any missing assignments and you can also bank some extra points for when things get busy later on. You can also finish up the class early that way if you want!
The following items are for fun and exploration:
Blog Stream. Here's something fun at Hannah H.'s blog: she added a graduation countdown widget (it's one of the Tech Tips). You can see it by popping open the sidebar of her blog using the hamburger menu and there it is!
Storybooks. And here's a Ganesha Storybook: Ganesha Loves His Food.
100-Word Stories. Today's 100-word story is about Ganesha too: Ganesha and the Moon (click title for more info).
Words. We have quite a few words in English that come from India, and one of them is BANGLE, from the Hindi word bangri, meaning "glass bracelet."
Mindset Video. Here are some thoughts from the perspective of evolutionary biology: mental 'deficits' are hidden strengths.
Event on Campus. There will be a matinee performance of Blood Wedding this afternoon at 3PM today in Weitzenhoffer Theatre (details).
