Post 2

Introduction:

Today is the second day of the PHTH 502 class. At this point we are hoping to get the other members to join the blog.

Instruction:

For today, it is important to start thinking about objective number three: presenting the information.

While it may seem out of sequence to begin with thinking about the third objective, the truth is that everything for this class hinges on the student being able to present the lecture or sermon on the information of their topic. So, it is imperative that the student get the presentation on the schedule at their church or not-for-profit.

Also, the instructor wants to prevent students becoming sidetracked during this course. Planning now will help.

Assignments:

I. Brainstorming-
A. Think through the steps necessary to get from the beginning of the class to the end. What will it take for the student to complete the four objectives of the course? (Refer to Post 1 for the class objectives)
B. Take time to break down the steps necessary for the completion of each objective.
C. Write down the steps necessary for the objectives to be completed.
D. Type a schedule of when each step must be completed in order to finish the class by August 3rd. Attach to an email and send it to your instructor wmartin@abcnash.edu

II. Look Online for Scheduling Helps
A. Visit the following website and experiment with their schedule generator: http://www.teach-nology.com/web_tools/materials/week_teach/ Print out what you create.
B. Use a search engine and see what other tools might be out there, free and otherwise.
C. If you have any software or tools you already use to organize projects, share thoughts about them with the class.
D. Then return to the blog and write a one paragraph description of your experience. Don't forget to begin each "comment" with the number of the post and your name.
