Online Dictionary

Directions:
As a class, divide up the following computer terms among you. Each person must cover three terms (no one in the class can duplicate the same term). Use the sources below to define each term. You may need to look through more than one side to find the best definition.

Create a PowerPoint presentation (no more than two slides) FOR EACH term with the requirements listed below. 
                   
                   Requirements for Each Slide:
                     
-Listing / Definition of the term
                      -Application / example of term use
                      -Appropriate graphics
                      -Source(s) of information (Copy the title of the page and the website address to a
                       location on the slide and hyperlink it.)

Save each presentation in the Online Dictionary folder in the 8th grade Computer Technology folder on Student Resources on the server. Use the term as the file name. You don’t need a title slide--I know who made it from the author listing in the file.

*Work together and help each other create good definition slides. I will be checking the folder to see your creations!
