Presentations we had today were interesting. I knew that some of Firefox add-ons are marginal in terms of copyright law. But they are actually useful, aren't they? I will TRY them.
After the presentations, we worked on our sites. Criteria became open to us at this point. My group was working hard and I found making a site is tougher work than I expected. Contents, exciting images, links, layouts, colors........ Though we can create it freely, it needs our sense so much.

CM class on Jan 29
After add-on presentations, we made new groups in order to look at each group's website. My group's site seemed to be better at this point so we will keep on working.
Also, our group is planning to create a slide show (one requirement of FP) using Picasa. Rob taught us how to use Picasa and we found it useful to make a slide show of pictures. We are now gathering interesting pictures related to nano-tech.

Launch our WP site! Jan 22
I did a presentation of FireFox add-on "Tree Style Tab." It might not be successfully done but I am so happy to finish my work. Also, someone who was next to me chose the same add-on, how strange it is!
After that, Yuri, Yuichi and I launched our site. It seems Yuichi is a professional of computers and IT technologies so we have an advantage! Our topic is nanotechnology, especially we are planning to focus on food.
By the way, I have too many groupwork (3 at this point, in ARW, CM and a sociology class.).......Winter term is sooooooooooooooooo tough to survive.

For CM Final Project
Yesterday we had three presentations for exciting firefox add-ons. Learning new add-ons I put them into my own Firefox but I found a bad thing........that is, my Firefox got very slow down. Then I disabled many add-ons and Firefox could work as usual (I use four add-ons now). Too many add-ons are not good for speed.
After that, Rob explained Evernote for us. It is a storage type add-on for Firefox. I am now thinking of how to use Evernote because it can memorize not only text but also picture. It seemed very useful and I will try it!
Then Rob made groups for CM Final Project and my group has three members. We found our interests (majors) are quite different: international relationship, sociology, and philosophy. But at this point we are commonly interested in health care in the future such as a possibility for amrit. I believe we will work together well.

The 1st CM class in winter!
At first I was surprised that Rob & Rab teached us!
I thought we will have two teachers in this term( but Rab was actually a tentative teacher.)
We joined a new group for winter term,
and confirmed a syllabus.
Then we reviewed what we learned in the last term by a checksheet and checked our comprehension.

Google Sites!
We had 2 presentation for firefox add-ons.
One is my favorite one, Cooliris. I love to use it because it is so beautiful!
Another is Glydo. It seems very useful to surfing the internet.
Then we played around Google Sites.
I made my website by using a template,
but I thought it did not so useful because changing template is not so easy as it seems.
I found that I prefer to create my website freely.

Google Form Survey
Our group researched classmates' plans for the next term.
Q1: Will you take any PE classes for the next term?
Yes/13 No/1
Q2: Which class did you choose for your first choice?
Social Dance/4
Taikyokuken/2
Physical Conditioning/2
Wadaiko/1
Kendo/1
Soccer/1
Volleyball/1
Table tennis/1
other/1
Q3: What is your second choice?
Wadaiko/3
Kendo/2
nothing/2
Taikyokuken/2
movement awareness/1
Soccer/1
Physical Conditioning/1
Volleyball/1
Q4: Have you already taken Introduction to Christianity?
Yes/5 No/6 Taking/3
Q5: Which teacher do you recommend?
Anri-sensei/3
Fukai sensei/3
Ro sensei/2
Kojiro sensei/1
other/1
/PE course/
Most of all the classmates are planning to take a PE class. Also, many of them prefer individual class such as social dance, physical conditioning or taikyokuken to team play such as soccer or volleyball.
/Intro to Christianity/
More than half of the classmates answered yes or taking; probably because this class is recommended for freshman. Anri sensei and Fukai sensei are popular, as I expected. And One classmate said, "I don't know 'cause I took just one teacher's class." This opinion is really rational.
/Generally Google Forms Function is.../
easy to create a survey and to see the result. It is also useful to share the result. I think Google Functions such as Docs, Forms or Groups are excellent in the meaning of ease of sharing.
