After+work+class+5+(online)

**Be sure to complete __both__ tasks!**
 * You can get an additional three hours of class credit by working on the following online portion of the course.**

__**task #1**__ - using the online site that your group worked with during our meeting on April 12th, create something that will help you serve the patrons of your library. For example, maybe you will create an edu.glogster.com poster that informs your students about a favorite author. Or perhaps you will use tagxedo.com to create images related to different genres (so an image related to mysteries would have words like suspense, crime, clues, etc.). **You need to have your product approved by the instructor (a.k.a. Pete). Please be sure to let him know what you are going to create before you start working on it.**

Reminder, the four online sites we used in class 3 were: Team #1 - https://bubbl.us Team #2 - www.tagxedo.com Team #3 - http://prezi.com Team #4 - http://edu.glogster.com

Once you have your product idea approved, please add your name to the table below and fill in the fields for your row. I have entered an example to give you an idea of what I'm after for each of the fields. (So, by the end of the course this table will be full of cool products that librarians can use with their patrons.)

__**task #2**__ - Create a library activity that forces your students to answer questions that require critical thinking. Your activity should take anywhere from 10 to 20 min. for students to complete. ** Before getting all the details of your activity worked out, send Pete an e-mail explaining what you plan to do and get his approval. Once your idea has been approved you can begin working out all the details. After you have your activity thoroughly planned, post directions for it in the table below. Be sure to post enough information so that your classmates can read your directions and replicate your activity. ** (If you're wondering what sorts of questions require students to think critically, take a look at the levels of questioning PDF link below. I'm looking for something that requires students to answer questions from levels two and/or three. I do not expect you to come up with something that requires students to answer many many questions. If your activity forces kids to answer a few high quality questions that is enough.)
