Day 2

Two down, only 177 more to go.  Today in class we reviewed yesterday's news article so that everyone had a better understanding of the "why" and "vocab" sections.  Our topic today was "Theory vs Law".  We started with a online simulation that tested students' observation skills using a "Spot the Difference".  I then asked students to go to http://www.dictionary.com/ and define the terms "theory" and "law".  Working with their partner, students then had to identify the difference between a theory and a law and post that difference in the discussion forum.  All of this was done within the friendly confines of Moodle.

No homework was assigned.
