Real life problem
Six people go into a restaurant. 3 people order a regular soft drink and 3 people order a diet soft drink. How can the server distinguish between the two types of drinks in order to bring the drinks to the table in one trip without getting the drinks mixed up?

Our solution: for cold drinks is to use different straw colors For hot drinks: use different colored lids on the pitchers that are used to pour the beverages



Wiki space questions
How multiple people can use wikispaces at the same time Lehighton (Weatherly)

You can give each student their own page to work on. This will prevent any editing conflicts since they will be the only one editing that section.

Then, combine the various pages together into one final product by using include (you can include a page by going to the Embed Widget tool, selecting "Wikispaces" from the menu, and then "Contents of a Wiki Page")

__Kodu Gaming Lab__

Kodu Gaming Lab is a gaming program that teaches students how to follow sequence and directions, and at the same time teaches them to write programs for their game. In addition, Kodu could be used in several different ways in different classes. It could be used in a geography class to create a topographical map using elevations and bodies of water. It could also be used in a history class to recreate or simulate battles, and how the troops had to navigate around obstacles. It could also be used in a math class to calculate angels and construct obstacles in the game. Kodu could be a very fun and exciting way for teachers to liven up their classes.
