YOU as students of the digital age are witnessing social media forever-change our culture before your eyes: The Arab Spring, Presidential races, Joseph Koney.....profound, really.  YOU are entering adulthood, armed with the tools of social media...to reach as many people as you wish...to SAY whatever you wish.  Well, what are you going to say?

Description:

Begin the preliminary steps of designing a social-media campaign in support of any cause you choose. (Consider that in Matthew 28:16-20, Christians are called to The Great Commission..."to make disciples of all nations.")

Answer each of the following questions on your blog in fulfillment of Assignment #16:

#1.) What cause do you wish to support using social media?

#2.) Why is this cause is important to you (detailed explanation)?

#3.) What are the BEST websites currently championing the cause you support (list 4 or 5)?

Due Friday, March 8th by 3:05pm!

Missing Grades

All "M" missing assignments will be posted as a "F" by Friday, Feb. 8th.  

Seniors, take note:  We are required each week to submit a report of seniors who are failing.  Senior privileges will be revoked, but more importantly: College acceptances and scholarships are provisional; a major dip in grades does terminate acceptances and/or scholarships!

This post is not a scare-tactic...it is simply fair warning (and it is out of love)!!!
