Resolve

My last post had my wishes for the upcoming weeks on what I hoped we could accomplish in our Globaloria class. Alas, too many snow days and a bout of the stomach virus that was going around cause too many absences from school to be very successful. When students were in class, they have been working very, very well. We are trying several different things with the mini game, trying to add drag and drop controls and random entries and speeds. I am bribing now though, if everyone gets their games done and uploaded by the end of the weeks I will bring in some food goodies for the class.
Students have indicated that they would prefer that I post a topic for them to blog about instead of them choosing for themselves so here goes:

Your topic for this week of February 7, 2011 - What is a Social Issue? Define it and post some links to social issue sites that you have found on the Internet. (Please make them appropriate for school; and you know what I mean) I am inserting one here that does not define it but does give you some topics. Happy Research!
