 * **Time** || **Name** || **Room** || **What do you want help with and what is the educational objective that you are addressing?** ||
 * 9:00 - 9:30 ||  ||   ||   ||
 * 9:30 - 10:00 || Margot Hayward || G2 || Margot wanted me to upload Smartboard software onto her computer, but I can't do that so I told her to get in contact with the district people to install the software, then I show her how to use it. Next, she was having trouble getting the laptop in her room to work, and I thought it was because she had put so many different programs on it, but I was unable to open my documents to she it there were any large items that might be slowing it down. As it turns out the laptop in the classroom is Margot's own home laptop, and she was using it to make it easier to use the Elmo and projector. I told her to talk with the district people to see if they would help with her computer since she uses it in class, and if they couldn't, she would need to bring it to a computer store to get it checked out. ||
 * 10:00 - 10:30 ||  ||   ||   ||
 * 10:30 - 11:00 || Janet Yancey || B9 || Janet didn't have access to her Dreamweaver site. First, I needed the school username and password so we could define the site. I called Joe Kempista in order to get the login information. After getting the information, worked through the defining instructions, then was able to get access back to Janet. Next time she wants to work on creating an Edublog. ||
 * 11:00 - 11:30 ||  ||   ||   ||
 * 11:30 - 12:00 ||  ||   ||   ||
 * 12:30 - 1:00 || Payne-Miller || B7 || Mrs. Payne-Miller wanted to continue working with her Edublog, so I worked with her to add different media to her blog. She had a bunch of newsletters in Word documents, so I showed her how to add them to her blog as links that would pop right up. I then talked with her about not having a ton of space on her blog to add a lot of pictures. I told her she could create a free flickr account, then link it to her page, thus freeing a lot of space. Next time we will work on finding interactive sites for her to use in the classroom. ||
 * 1:00 - 1:30 ||  ||   ||   ||
 * 1:30 - 2:00 || Abby Fischer || B4 || Abby wanted to work further on her Edublog, so I showed her how to add media and different kinds of documents. She wanted to add a pdf, but didn't know how to create a pdf. I showed her the free pdf converter websites that we found on google. After converting the publisher newletter to pdf, we then uploaded it to the Edublog, and inserted it into her newsletter page. Next time we will work on finding site that the kids will find useful for her site. ||
 * 2:00 - 2:30 ||  ||   ||   ||
