9:50 – Changing our SubDomains and WebHost

Googie Host was not a good choice for free subdomain hosting. After we tried to sign up, the company stopped fulfilling accounts. We are going to switch web hosts this morning.

Open the Google Doc your created for GoogieHost. We can use this document to store our user/pass accounts for our new webhost…

To create an account, you are going to use a non school email account. I am using my personal email as my account. If you have a personal account, that is what you need to use. If you do not have one, I suggest you create one – you will need it after school ends in June anyway.

After webhosting is set up – there are 4 tasks to work on this morning. Those tasks are below – in bold. We are not coding at this time! We are collecting the materials first. You don’t build a house with half the materials or bake a cake without shopping for all the ingredients first

Your Personal Statement is to share something about you that cannot be found in your portfolio, resume or transcript. It is what make you … you!

Look at how your nouns overlap or intersect. It is likely there are some commonalities in your stories that help define you.

The next step is to begin writing. They call it a first draft for a reason!
Here are some example excerpts you can look at.
