Fall 2005 21st Century Web Club!
Hi Everybody! Welcome back to the club.
We will be exploring the Internet and learning how to create webpages. We'll also be creative with online art and music making tools and will play games and explore learning sites that might make doing homework more fun.
I will post the club activity every week here in the club "blog." Sometimes we'll use this site to write comments or post places we find on the web that we think are cool. We will only use first names or nicknames here.
We will follow the club rules and the Rules for Online Safety
Today's Activity: Identity Project
1) Using the “cooltext” site (ignore the ads!), or some of the artmaking sites linked from the Somerville 21 Web Club home make an orginal graphic using your name. You can make more than one.
Or try drawing a picture with your name using the Typedrawing program.
You can also use Microsoft Paint or KidPix on the computers here at school (or even markers, paper and pencils!) create a name card. Be as creative as you want.
2) Create a folder on your computer with your name to store your images.
3) Save or move your name art to the folder.
(If you use paper/markers I will digitize your art for you).
4) "Upload" - copy it - to the school server in the 21st Century Web Club folder.
My Computer > shared server > save work here > 12st Century Web Club Fall 2005 > your school folder
Next week we will begin learning HTML - the codes you use to make webpages. You can take a sneak peak by following the links from the club home.
