Anna S.

 you guys the new draft is not what i was thinking check out my draft right here- MER draft#2

 Jake H.  we should have a mission objective and pictures/videos of the rovers
 Jake H.  We should have less links and more raw info.
 Kaley F.  We only have 6 information websites so we should try to find out some more info.
 Jake H.  We should have info. on the ship that brought the rovers into space
Jordanne

Jordan and i came up with an idea for this page's format and we left it with mrs flynt so you can see it , anna also had a cool idea,

please post what you like and dislike about them so we can start working on the format. Also add your own ideas if you would like. 

Jordan yeah jordanne, those pictures were good...we can work on that later.  Jake and Kaley...did you see our layouts on the paper today in class?  Anna's was the one with the video clips and stuff at the top and then Jordanne and I just like expanded on her idea.  If you want to add anything, PLEASE let us know!!  We can communicate here if we find anything.  Tell us if you have any questions, comments, or concerns.  And I think that we have enough links and information to answer the basic who what where when why and how questions that we came up with for homework.  Thanks!!
Jordanne sorry Jordan i didnt mean to ruin your streak im just checking in on the page good job so far
Jordan Anna, you really need to log in at the top and write whatever you did down here or up in the log in box.  I'm guessing that you were the one who made the first draft...it's not quite established, so I am just fixing that up for everyone.  Jake and Kaley, ask Mrs. Flynt if she could show you the designs that Jordanne, Anna, and I made up yesterday.  I will also ask if you showed her any for us.  The first draft is now going to be a bit more like the papers from yesterday...Anna, as I said, is wasn't that good when I looked, so I am going to change it today.
Jordan Hi everyone!!  Jake, I just read your rough draft for the layout of the final page.  I think that it's very good, but I think that it might be better if we had just like one MER home page, and then from that page we could have links for different pages for both Spirit and Opportunity.  It might be a bit more organized that way.  During your class period, make sure that Mrs. Flynt gives you the papers....look on the back of the one that has links for Spirit and Opportunity in the middle of the page.  The back has a rough draft of the layout of a page for Spirit and a page for Opportunity....they would probably have the same layouts, but would contain different information.  I don't want to add anything else to the rough draft because I still don't know what you and Kaley would like on the pages.  Please post any resposnes or comments about this subject in these boxes this afternoon.  Thanks!!
Jake I have added to part of a draft using my layout to make it similar to my design. if you like it, please finish it with what you want to put in, if you don't like it, you may start a different draft, and we will compare them later.And sorry if you don't like me continuing your draft,Jordan! :-) Please check it out.
Jordan No problem Jake...Your ideas look very good on that first draft...I think that today in 3rd period I will update it a bit.   And perhaps we could add links at some point to the areas that have information of spirit and opportunity.  We could have a few large details about each rover and then a link below in the same box...It would look good!!

Jordanne and Jordan
Hey Kaley and Jake...Jordanne, Anna, and Jordan finished up a second draft....it's basically our ideas from the paper onto the draft page...we think that if you two can finish up the 1st draft, we could compare and then make a 3rd and final draft for our final page...Thanks!!  Have a Great Spring Break
Jake Hi! for some reason, I could'nt put a video in our drafts with out buying the thing that  lets us potray the video. any suggestions? I also like the 2nd draft. 8-)
kaley

Hi guys! I am the last person to be on here before spring break! the 2nd and 1st draft are really good but I think sometime we should add some color to the page, I will probably be working on that today,  just so it will stand out a little more. I like the idea of a third draft it could make our page even better! (not that it isn't fantabulouse already) Hope you have a GREAT Spring Break!!!!!! Any questions or comments, I will be checking in hopefully everyday! :) Again feel free to change anything you want to! Sorry I didn't meen to ruin the page! 

Anna Hey you guys i like the color idea a what do you think about my draft it looks a little messed ou becuase of that bar to the right so just click edit to see what it really looks like
Jordanne I just looked over the page and i think everyone has some really great ideas. Kaley, i liked your idea for color so i took it a step further i think everyone should highlight their comments and log ins in a color of their choice. its ok if you dont like the idea, feel free to change it back. Jake, sorry i couldnt help with the video thing im not the best with computers.
Anna ok you guys i talk to mrs. flynt and we need to put all are formats together and start adding info because we definatley need an a+ so everyone look at what everyone has write  comments but do not start to make youre own till we all see then can start tonight
Jordan Hey everybody so ne ways anna noooooooo to that other draft i'm sorry but we really think that we should have like three pages...a home page for the main mission stuff and then two serperate pages one for spirit and one for opportunity...it might help organize things a whole lot better thanks and by the way Jake thanks for that comment about the second draft we need EVERYONE's input and backup reasoning for why we should either have just one main page or three pages for seperation.  And by the way Jake we can't upload the videos yet because mrs. flynt's system has to buy them so remember if you buy them that means that mrs. flynt is paying for it...lol
Kaley

Hello, I am very glad you guys like the color idea. I was just looking at some of the other pages and noticed that they had alot more color than ours so i thought we coould make ours a little better by doing that. Jordanne, I realy like the idea of making what everyone says their own individual color! Anna, I agree with the rest of the group we should stick to 3 drafts just so we can keep it simple but good and not so full of stuff that we can't find anything. I worked some on the color before but it kind of came out wrong and didn't look very good but I fixed it... sort of! lol

 

Anna I agree with the three page idea but no one every told me about it so i thought we were doing one. Today i will make sure it is okay with mrs. flynt about that and the video!    You guys i have some bad news, i talked to mrs. flynt and we cant get the video but she will help me link the apple page where people can buy the movie on there own or with their ipod plus it shows the trailer which is about as good as we can get . The main website for the movie is not prohibited so i went with this hpoe its cool with you!!!
Jake Hill I definately think we should adding more information and pictures to are drafts.We should also start citing our sources so we don't have to go back and find our sources later.
Kaley

Hey it looks great we really got some good info, but I didnt get to go on for very long and I need some help on the draft 1 citations I really don't know all of the cites! (sorry) That stinks that we didnt get the video but we can deel with it and really need to work on all of our sites. See u later

Jordanne I dont know what we are going to be using for our final draft, but we should probably decide soon. I kno Jordan and i have been mostly working on the first draft, and you guys on the second, and i think its time to integrate the 2 pages.  If you guys have any ideas on how the best way to do that is, please share. I think that if we need to make a third page that includes the 2 pages combined we should do that too. Im going to keep working in the 2nd draft untill i get some feedback, and please share ideas on what you think we need to do......Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
jordan k so ne wayz we REALLY need 2 get together r at least talk it through over this...WE NEED TO GET A FINAL DRAFT TOGETHER...mrs. flynt was talking to jordanne and my class today saying that we should be FINISHING UP the FINAL DRAFT...now no offense to NE ONE but we really need to decide b/c half us are doing rough draft one, half rough draft 2 and even though this doesn't make sense...one is doing rough draft 3...so lets decide so that we don't waste all of our time adding information to pages that we might not even be using...k so let's see wat we can do...until people respond to this post, jordanne and i will keep on working on number 2, anna will help us with the video, and i think that it might actually work if kaley and jake keep working on number 1 b/c then we can ask mrs. flynt which one would be better or compare and contrast them ourselves and decide on our own.. which ever way we decide to do it, let's make it quick b/c we're running out of time lol!!  PEACE OUT   o wait and btw jake and kaley a lot of the stuff on ur page...rough draft 1...it can be used if we end up using nunber 2, and visa versa...THANKS!!
Kaley

hey guys im like really confused cuz i cant find our rough drafts unless the draft 1 and 2 are the drafts!!!!!!!!!!!! HELP!

ok well any way i totally understand bout the drafts but i need to know wen the  pages are totally due!!!

thnxx!!!! :) cia guys peace!
