The Boss Fan 1 Post #2/Week 2
I chose to complete Discovery Exercise 2A Britannica School Edition. I am astounded at the multitude and variety of information available here. In the Britannica Elementary area I chose to search for the habitat of a Zebra, which I found out is various parts of Africa. I was especially interested to check out the the Middle School area because this is the area that I teach. I found there is just as much variety of information with written articles, videos and a continuous scrolling picture show of zebras in various situations which was particularly interesting and well done. In the High School area there was also an amazing amount of information, including journal and magazine articles. Exploring through the "Workspace" feature reminded me of the use of "Portaportal." I use this often to help direct students to articles to be used in researching information for projects. My interpretation was that "Workspace" worked in a similar way. It seems like it would be very valuable.
