Schedule Update 2.6 and 2.13

Hi all! Assignments and reading for 2.6.08 are still as we made them, so please prepare for next Wednesday's class accordingly. A very knowledgable sub whom you have already met will lead you through class. She's very good with reading, diagnostics, and assessment, so do not hesitate to ask her questions.

As for 2.13.08, please do all the asigned readings for that week and have readings for 2.13 and 2.20 read by 2.20.

However, on 2.13.08, you should start class in the International Center, the building right beside LAB, and meet in or outside of room 102. Someone named Amy will give you a 2-hour course on how to make podcasts. Her instruction will be essential for your virtual book talk assignment. Amy has the entire class time to help you; please make sure to ask her questions -- you will share your virtual booktalks with the world and want to make sure you can make them the best they can be. If you all exhaust your questions with time left, you may take that remaining time for yourself. Remember, though each of you must do your own book talk, you may work in teams to help with production, share tech, etc.

I'll see you all again soon.

Best,
Bucky
