Genius Hour Stuff
So you guys should probably look over this again:
Link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1yd1KeCxJ69i-noeI_2H2sZx0W62d6AsfYP8l86ERDkQ/edit#
When is your Genius Hour Presentation?
What should it mimic?
How much percentage of your grade is your presentation?
Why haven't you been doing your blogs as much as you can?
When is your presentation????
So here's the deal with these. You have about 20 days until you present. You need to utilize that time to actually make a compelling case for this. There will be no more projects in the class. We will finish up the books, and you will create your genius hour presentation.
I really want to see some creative stuff here. I think you can do it w/ the time left to you. Heck you can even make up three blogs that you have left.
