Quiz Makeup, Exchange Paper Assignment

If you bombed the Elements of News quiz, there is a makeup on Quizstar. I suggest you review the slides below before taking it. You may take it in class on Monday or on your own time, but the timer is set to 10 minutes. This means you have 10 minutes to answer eight questions. After the finishing the questions, click on review to see an explanation of each answer. Do not use Safari in taking the quiz, as it doesn't work properly. If you got a B and are aiming for an A, you are welcome to retake the quiz, but it really won't make that much of a difference in your grade in the long run.

On Monday, you will begin the Exchange Paper/Website assignment, which calls for you to read and evaluate another school's paper and website. You will take another school's newspaper from the archives and look to see if that school has a newspaper website. If the school does not have a website, go to my.hsj.org and click on Browse Student Media to choose from the many school websites there.

While you do this, Mr. Manriquez will call students one at a time to give out your MyMail accounts.

Exchange Paper/Website assignment is due Monday, Aug. 26.

    1. They should be as long as needed to answer the question. Some questions may have longer answers than others, but I would say a sentence or two would suffice.
