The best thing that happened today

A young man in my Computer class was doubled over laughing- could barely catch his breath. We've been working with Audacity, and he thought he sounded hilarious in playback. His group was making mistakes, and they ultimately couldn't find where they had saved their project. But they didn't seem too worried. They shrugged, he laughed, and they said they would try again tomorrow. That was really the only solution left to them, and I'm glad they arrived at it themselves!

What a great attitude! I smiled all the way around the computer lab, picking up and putting away.

The other best part about this Audacity project: I didn't come up with it. I borrowed it from another teacher: Tonya Skinner. (http://lessonplans.btskinner.com/multimedia.html) I don't know Tonya, but she was gracious enough to post a bunch of projects online and I ran into them right when I really, really needed an Audacity project. I am profoundly grateful, Tonya. Bacon was saved today.
