Assessment

Now it makes sense that changing the screen background would be in system preferences!

I liked the sticker activity.

I thought I posted last time. What happened to it???
I enjoyed the last class. Arriving on time has many advantages! Will we learn how to create our own wikis? (Or did I miss that?) I miss some things even when I'm in class!!!
Will we meet tomorrow?
