Heroes Project



This week we started working on the new collaborative project on heroes using google docs.

Here are some tips:

  • Remember to follow the steps for a successful paraphrasing.

  • Apply the “double check rule.” Return to the original material to confirm you used your own words.

  • It is extremely important for you to do lots of research, that means, READ, READ and READ all the necessary sources so that you find interesting information about your hero.

  • Once you believe it is finished: pass SPELL CHECK,

  • Re read the whole biography to see that there are no repetitions.

  • Please avoid erasing other peer's contribution. Leave a polite comment.

  • Remember to write short sentences and include full stops and capital letters after them.

  • Remember to leave your personal opinion at the end of the biography.
    You are doing fine. Keep on working hard and enjoy it!

Miss Ale,
I was playing the game of the post that you posted before this one. But this post has something strange... The date! It tells you that you posted it the 1rst of june the first, but today is may the thirty-one. I think that as you did on etherpad, it is a good idea to write the steps in the blog, because sometimes we forget about what we had to do when we finish typing. In the class, when we entered the blog, there most of us learned what was a successful paraphrasing and what we had to do to avoid plagirism or copy paste. I think that learning about all this things that we don't have to do is a good idea, since when we do our work that we have to look for information we can do a successful paraphrasing so that we are avoiding plagirism. This project I am enjoying it and a lot, because we learn, as the video said, about ordinary people doing extraordinary things. You said that READ READ AND READ, in the partitions, in reading & writing I wrote "when you have nothing to do read and read " I think that revising and reading is great because you can improve your story or work. I hope that nobody without meaning erases a part that a group type because if this happenes, the group will enter and see less information. Lots of thanks of taking the work of writing the steps of the work that we are doing in google docs!
Keep on posting,
Good Byeee.
Kisses & Hugs

Hello Miss Ale,
The steps to write the biographies beetween the three classes, its a great idea!! and also to put the steps in the blog so as to read them before giving them to you. I think that you didn`t put "Be carefull with the copy and paste" or "Be carfull, you have to paraphrese the information". As also you did with Etherpad, but the instructions on Etherpad you put them in the Blog and in the wiki. Are you going to out them aldo in the wiki?? I will try to keep in mind the instructions whenn I am writing the biography. Its a great idea the one of doing the biography of heroes because at the final of the year or when we finish with heroes, we are going to now about all the heroes becasu even we read a story of a hero adn now we write about a hero. OMG!! We now a lot.
See you tommorrow

Yoi have a very good idea, of everithing projects we have on class, you put the tips or the instructions on the blogg!!!You did the same with EtherPad, of avoiding plarigism, avoid pharaphresing, etc
Thank-you again

hello miss ale this helped alot because I had forgotten how to enter the heroe thing in goggle docs. I was also very bejind but now thanks to this I have cathed up.The blogs great I dont come since a month or mabye less .And in the thing of heroes I was about to save when I realized that I didnt parafrize any thing so I spent half an hour doing that although in my topic theres not much.When I read for second time the peace of writing there were alot of mistakes then in the third time there wer also alot of mistakes so it was very frustrating to see mmore mistakes every time you read it.
