Hello students,

I hope you have had a good Labor Day weekend! The first topic I would like to discuss is Elluminate sessions.

I have added 3 new assignments this week: Assignment 1 - 01 - 3 Keyboarding, Article/Blog Review 2 Assignment and Assignment 1 - 02 Keyboarding Reflection Essay. The keyboarding assignment is just like the first couple of weeks. This will be the last week of keyboarding. Very Important: Make sure to type each weekday (Tuesday-Friday) for 30 minutes and post your scores to your log to record. This past week, some students only recorded a few days of typing. Make sure to record all four for full points. There is only four days this week because of the Labor Day holiday.

Article/Blog Review 2 is an assignment created to gain your interest in our Technology forums. Make sure to complete this assignment this week. It is mandatory. The website to reference is Gizmodo. Make sure to reply to at least one other classmates' post to get full credit along with your own summary.

Assignment 1 - 02 Keyboarding Reflection Essay is where you will reflect on how keyboarding is an important skill to have. This will be a one-page paper, so you will need to go into detail.

All three assignments are due: Sunday, September 13th by midnight.
