    • Organize the steps (p. 3)

http://tinyurl.com/startprezi 

 

SEE PREZIS YOUR NC13 CLASSMATES HAVE PRODUCED SO FAR (Mar 26)

 

You can get no more than a B on this assignment if you don't send your teacher the URL TO vstevens@hct.ac.ae FROM your HCT mail.  HCT mail gives me your exact name, and shows me you can log on to your HCT computer and use the HCT network drive, which we may need later. Using other emails means you are not working within the system, your work might get lost, and if that happens, it is your fault, not your teacher’s. 

Also when sending in your work, please put your class and ID# in the subject line.
