Sample+Wiki+Collaboration

Tommy - Ok does anyone have suggestions for a title page. Our research also needs to be designated. I like the word art and the Comic Sans font. It is easy to read. I also have a cool background we can use for all the slides. It's watermark so it will not be too distractive. So as we create the slides leave them as a blank..no background. The background colors are pale sky blue and light yellow. I am in environmental science class so for our Global Warming project I will research and provide the water levels and find pictures of icebergs throughout the decades. What statistics do you want for the math part ? Georgia - Hi I'm in stats. yes definitely needed to work a statistical graph and such. I will search for some numbers on water levels from this cool website I found last year when I started my graduation project. i will send you guys the link. Have any of you used Wiki before????? I am really scared about getting this done.

Hi guys, I'm Ava. I'm in stats but 6th period. what class period do you have Georgia? Yes, this is my first time using wiki for collaboration and for a powerpoint. i used it to write a paper and have it read by my classmates. They added suggestions and helped me get an A on the final draft...so this is a great way to communicate. I also took an online class last year using blackboard. discussion groups were tough when people dodn't respond in time. So i want to let everyone know we need to use our classtime and not sign in or complete the project. I will volunteer to be team leader if no one else wants it and if you send me your finished product I will combine all the slides. Tommy if that is ok and you can send me the background...I like your idea. As far as research I will find out countries with the lowest sea levels and create a mathematical calculation to determine amount of glacier meltdown and what landmasses will disappear. georgia if you have a way to help me graph it that would be great. I know excel can do this for us. what do you think? i would love the water levels when you get them Tommy. Just identify and I can put them in a chart.

Tommy - Ava thanks for volunteering, yes I vote you for leader. I will get the title page and it will have the background. You can add it to all the other slides as you combine them. I found this article written by The Hill Times in Canada, May 19th retrieved May 19th. author Ian McDonald spoke of Environment Minister John Baird. Baird called global warming "defining isue of our generation". What do you think about working this into the title page? here is the citation website: http://www.thehilltimes.ca/members/login.php?fail=2&destination=/html/index.php?display=story&full_path=2008/may/19/qa_baird/&c=2 Maybe pose it in question form with a picture that grabs at everyone!
