First, a words about staying on task...
From what I understand, about one third of you have been going straight to games when you have arrived in class. Another third start playing games about halfway through class. And one third of you have for the most part been on task all period. To those of you that have not been completing assignments, don't plan on passing this class just by showing up. It doesn't work that way. Currently, about one third of you are not passing. If you insist on failing this class, so be it. And by the way, I wasn't kidding about the paper on "Why Today's Technology is Deteriorating the Attention Span of Today's Youth" (200 words, with proper works cited page). Several of you are already on a list for playing games this week. If you know you are on it, feel free to go ahead and get started on the paper since you already know how to find free time in class. It will be due at the end of next week. Incompletion will result in a lunch detention for each day your name made the list.
