Homework
Folks, you’re responsible for WEDNESDAY’S homework (see below), and I will post more for SUNDAY night. I’ll try to have it up by FRIDAY.
Wednesday, January 19
Tuesday, January 18
Monday, January 17
If your required items show ZERO in Zangle, it’s because all of them have not yet been completed, OR I haven’t recorded your points yet. Feel free to email me. Tomorrow is the last day to record any items for first semester.
For information about due dates, click the CALENDAR tab. (I will have February up soon.)

If you’re trying for a “B” this month, you should have 74 points (80%) on your calendar by the end of this week.
If you’re trying for a “C” this month, you should have 56 points (60%) on your calendar by the end of this week.
If your required items show ZERO in Zangle, it’s because all of them have not yet been completed, OR I haven’t recorded your points yet. Feel free to email me.
FRIDAY IS THE DEADLINE FOR POINT RECOVERY. If you are attempting point recovery in the form of a new essay, remember: I will not accept the work for full credit unless I see the Thinking Map essay plan before you write the draft. Make sure to consult me about what you plan to do before starting on an essay plan. I want this to be a useful exercise. Due date for Point Recovery: Friday, 1/14. Limit per day: 1 Point Recovery item.

Major Foul of the Century
While browsing a web page introducing a new iPad app called “WritePad for iPad 4.5,” I read the following sentence:
“WritePad has a spell checker with it’s own custom dictionary.”
Oh, the irony. I wonder if they used their own custom dictionary in order to spell “its.”
