Voicethread link

Gentlemen:
Here’s an update to your Blogspot assignments – You should have already put your ‘Inconvenient Truth’ summaries and reviews on your blogs. The deadline is this week Thursday, 13 November. After that, you will not get credit in your evaluations for the IT work.
For ‘Voicethread’, you should embed a Voicethread post into your blogs, with comments from your partner(s). This is due latest on Sunday, 16 November for final evaluation credit. We need to get working on updating your blogs because the next assignments will start next week.
Happy blogging!
