Welcome to your isbchem1 wiki!

I'd like to say that there's been a lot of good things added to this wiki site over the last few days. I'm really happy with the result of the pages you've made so far and hope more than anything that you all find them useful as a learning tool. I'd like to remind you that all images used on your wiki pages that are not your own creation must be cited or removed!

It seems as if some people are concerned about unethical behavior of some users. Please - remember that this is an official assignment and unethical pranks will not be tollerated. As admin, I can see every change that has occured including the IP address of the machine that was used. Also, please don't make changes to this front page. I consider this one mine.

Good luck tomorrow - I'm looking forward to good presentations.

- J Plaman

How to give a good presentation:

• Make it interesting, tell us things we can't read in the book or just look up.
• Summarize.
• DON'T READ YOUR SLIDES TO US - have things to talk about.
• Speak slowly, loudly, and clearly.
• Look at us, engage us.

What do include on your Periodic Table Groups pages:

• Summary of information from the presentation related to physical and chemical properties, interesting info and uses, etc.
• Pictures or diagrams.
• Links to other good sites with information about your group.
