Meeting Minutes - Term 1 Week 7

Today we looked at setting everyone up with a Blogger account so they can contribute to the Tech Wizard blog. Remember:

• You are bound by the FOS Digital Safety Guidelines when using these tools.
• Don't record your last name anywhere.
• Be ethical at all times.

Your challenge:

1. Set yourself up with a Blogger account.
2. Get Logan, Libby or Rob to invite you to contribute to it.
3. On your own blog (go to Dashboard), make sure you have selected 'image verification' for commenting.
4. Write a blog post in the TW blog describing what you've learned today.
5. Read this link on using labels, which is a crucial blogging skill!
6. Once you've done that, have a play with YOUR blog, with changing the Layout > Adding Page Elements.

Meeting Minutes Term 1 Week 6

Here are the items we covered during our meeting today:

Assembly Setup - 

1. Setting up power cables - put the multibox on the end of the extension lead.
2. Setting up the sound system - volume controls (using someone to help check sound levels from the back of the hall), plugging in the mike, mixing volumes of mikes/computer and controlling the main volume.
3. Setting up datashow - get the datashow set up in relation to the screen first (before plugging into the computer), fixing keystone/focus/zoom, plugging in dongles safely. Checking Displays settings in the System Preferences.

There is a google doc with a checklist on it here, this shows you almost everything you'd ever want to know when setting up assembly. It was written by Daniel Coats last year.

iPhoto sharing - see the Techie Brekkie post for a movie about using Picasa photo sharing.

Next week's meeting agenda:

1. Checking everyone knows how to use the roster.
2. Joining the Tech Wizard blog.
3. How to use the TW blog.
4. Photosharing using iPhoto.

Techie Brekkie - Term 1 Week 5

Here is the video of what was covered at the Techie Brekkie for staff last week. We looked at:

1. Setting up a Picasa account for your class (using your room FirstClass account).
   
2. Learning to use iPhoto to export a photo into this Picasa album.

Here are links to various iLife08 tutorials for you. I've linked to what I see as the most important things to know in each application:

• iPhoto - organising photos using albums, adding titles, descriptions, ratings and keywords, using search to find photos, 
  
•
