BHE Weekly Successes, Sept. 18-22

Hampton: Business Technology\r\n

\r\n

Students learned how to better navigate the internet browser and the different tools they\r\ncan use within it. Students shared with everyone how they use the internet in their life.\r\nWe discussed how to use the internet as a research tool and began to research and\r\nanswer questions about what we have learned in business technology and social\r\nstudies in a google form. Every week they get more and more comfortable using a\r\ncomputer and the potential they have working with technology.\r\n
