Post #3

Many students need a visual aid to help them come up with ideas. For the third grade Inspiration is a great software application that can help do that. One lesson plan that utilizes this software could be one that has the students write an essay. With an idea web from Inspiration, the students could develop their writing skills at a much faster pace.

This website is visually incorrect. There is an unimportant portion in the top middle of the page. What is important, the definition of the word, requires one to have to scroll down to view. Instead the definition of the word should be at the top middle of the page. Most of the top middle part of this website is unimportant information. One should have the most important things in the top middle.

Senior year of high school our class president was caught plagiarizing an essay. He had his office title removed. I believe that it is circumstantial with regard to what a teacher should do. What should be most important is that they learn their lesson and do not plagiarize again. In high school a student can afford to learn this lesson the hard way, but not in college. I definitely would not let the student completely off the hook.
