Wednesday May 5, 2010 After eliminating incomplete projects from grades K-3 and 10-12, the number of projects remaining is 502. I will be working on the first review of the 4-6 and 7-9 projects today and Thursday. Teachers are urged to submit their evaluations as soon as possible. Tuesday May 4, 2010 The original 609 projects have been reduced to 539 as a result of withdrawal notices from teachers. Teachers are urged to send a listing of any students that did not complete their project. As well, teachers are reminded that Teacher Evaluations are due May 7. Sunday May 2, 2010 The accounts have been locked and the long process of judging begins. Judging usually takes several weeks. Expect results around the end of May. I will provide more information on the judging process and progress in later Judging Updates in this blog. As always, if you have any questions or comments reply in this blog or email larry@virtualsciencefair.com Teacher Evaluations:
Use a table similar to:
Create a very very simple first page named index.htm then upload to the server and check if it displays properly using a browser- IE or Firefox. The address is www.virtualsciencefair.org/2010/your_userid If it doesn’t display correctly, then stop and solve the problem before adding more to the page. Once a very simple index.htm page is working add to it and check each addition in a browser. Edit–>Upload–>Check Edit–>Upload–>Check Edit–>Upload–>Check Repeat this cycle frequently. I seldom work more than a few minutes on a webpage without uploading and checking my work. NOTE: “Refresh or Restart” the browser after each upload to view the updated page. Otherwise you may be viewing an older cached version of the page. To view the contents of your teacher account use the full URL. For example: www.virtualsciencefair.org/2010/teacher_userid/index.htm Students use www.virtualsciencefair.org/2010/student_userid The student display includes a header containing project information useful for judging. If teachers or students have any problems with the display of there projects please contact Larry at once. Help can be obtained by email larry@virtualsciencefair.com or phone (250) 598-5960. As well questions can be submitted in the Forum. Please review the following: I will be away from the VSF office Sun. Mar. 14 to Mon. Mar. 22. I will not be able to process registrations during this period. As well, I will be slow in responding to emails etc during this period. The closing date for all Teacher and Team Registrations is extended to Wed. March 31. This will accommodate those on Spring Break. As well, I will be away from the VSF office from Mar. 13 to Mar. 22. All Teacher and Team Registrations received as of March 5 have been processed and the appropriate replies emailed to teachers. If a Teacher has not received the emails it may be due to it having been filtered by the school mail server. Please contact me using an alternative email account or phone (250) 598-5960. larry@virtualsciencefair.com |
