 * **Time** || **Name** || **Room** || **What do you want help with and what is the educational objective that you are addressing?** ||
 * 9:00 - 9:30 || Michelle Smith ||  || She wanted to create an Edublog for art links and art information she wanted the parents to know. We started by getting her set up with an Edublog account. After we set up her account, we changed her password into something that she could remember. Next we got rid of all the stuff that was put on the blog by Edublog. After that we changed her theme to something that she thought resembled an artistic website. Next I showed her how to add posts, pages and links. She wanted to add a lot of interactive site links having to do with art. After we added the links, I finished by showing her how to manage the posts, pages, and links she created. ||
 * 11:55 - 12:35 || Christine ||  || Christine and 3 other 3rd grade teachers wanted to learn how to use the Smartboard, from set up to some ideas of interactives to use with it. I started by showing them how to connect the Smartboard to the computer, and how to connect the computer to the internet using a long ethernet cable. After showing them the connection, I showed them how to align the Smartboard through the settings option. Next I showed them Smartnotebook software, and how to change between pens, and insert things into the notebook. I finished by showing them how to use Thinkfinity to search for interactive lessons that could be used on the Smartboard. ||
 * 12:45- 1:30 || Ann Doughten ||  || She wanted to learn how to use Powerpoint. I started by showing her how to choose a background design for the slides. Next, I showed her how to choose the type of slide that would work best for her in different informational situations. After showing her this, we worked on creating a 4 slide slide-show. As we were working on that, I showed her how to insert a new slide, and how to insert pictures, tables, and graphs. Finally, I showed her how run the slide show, and save the slide show to different folders on her computer. ||
