**Tuesday, October 12 ** **Good Afternoon 7th Block! ** **It looks like some of you are off to a great start. A couple of the groups have a lot of work to get finished today. The images that you have selected are nice and you also need to start thinking about a video segment to include. For today's assignment, you will have 45 minutes to complete the assignment and make sure that your page is as complete as possible. At that point, you will need to spend about 10-15 minutes posting your discussions (be sure to sign your name) ****﻿ and your response. ** **On your own paper (one per group), you will rank each of the pages in terms of overall effectiveness and quality. Rank them from best to worst and be sure to include your own page in the rank (the home page will not be included). Write down two positive comments and at least one __specific__ thing that could have improved the page (content, style, layout, etc.). Then choose 2 of the pages and summarize the notes on this same piece of paper. This will need to be turned in before you leave. ** **Be sure to budget your time so that you can earn as many points as possible. ** **On another note, all make up assignments and test retakes must be completed by Thursday at 3:30. I am giving you an extra day from what I told you last week. ** **I hope things are going well and I will see you tomorrow. ** Welcome to Heat Transfer in the Atmosphere Geophysical Science Fall 2010- 7th Block

Monday
== Using your textbook, Chapter 24 (pages 746-764), you will create a page on your topic or topics. Begin by reading your section of the text so that you can understand the type of information you need to cover and the depth at which it should be written about. On your page, you will begin with an introduction to your topic. Do not borrow ideas from your text book for your introdution. Using research and your own creativity, find a fun and insighful way to introduce your topic. Then, you will explain to your peers the importance of your topic and how it is related to Heat Transfer in the Atmosphere. Remember that you must include at least one video and two images that support your topic. You will end with a conclusion that explains the 'take home' message for your topic and what you found interesting or surprising. ==
