Looking for posts from all 12 authors selected by their groups on Wednesday and Thursday to post brief summaries of their groups' first encounters. Only three of you have done so, as of Saturday morning. Where are the rest of you? If you've opened your email invitation you should see "New Post" in the upper right. Click it.
Post something, please, so everyone can "comment" and add their FQs, DQs, links etc.
Starting Tuesday we'll make sure that always happens before we leave class.
Meanwhile, everybody, post those FQs etc. anywhere you like... but post 'em before Tuesday.
If you've forgotten where to find Tuesday's assignment: always look under "Next" in the right margin.
If you're having technical difficulties posting, please send your stuff to a classmate or to me to post for you.
See you in class. Have a happy Labor Day.
