Hi Hannah. As you may see if you read some of my page, I also like to travel. I noticed that you didn't have any pictures up yet. If you need help let me know. I teach webpage design and it even took me a bit to figure out Wikibooks way of doing things. I agree with your sentiments about children. They are bombarded by the media and their peers with all kinds of ideas of how they should act and what they should look like. I have found that you get more out of students with the carrot (rewards) then the stick (punishments). Also no one can overstate the importance of passion for what your teaching... and genuine care for the students. Good luck this semester!! Jpric002 (talk) 01:43, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

Lstul001 (talk) 04:11, 2 February 2009 (UTC) Hey Hannah! I'm glad your going into the teaching business. I didn't think I would be a teacher either and yet here I am! I guess if it's in ya it's in ya! I'll be a little nervous when it comes to teaching my own class, I'm in agreemnt with the comment above, when I was younger in public school, I loved rewards rather than the fear of punishment.

In order to get a pic on your page its like a 5 part process... which is a lil goofy if you ask me. 1) log in 2) look on the left for the toolbox and choose UPLOAD FILE 3)scroll to the bottom of the page and choose BROWSE to your photo on your pc. 4)when you select your picture it will bring in the filename with it. In the Destination filename area rename the file something that makes sense (.ex. heatherpic1.jpg) IMPORTANT. Remember this filename, or copy it for later (including the .jpg part) in the Licensing spot choose the (Public Domain) option. 5) go to your homepage and choose edit page up top. Then choose the 6th icon (embed file) it will put something like this on  your page File;Example.jpg Replace the "Example.jpg" part with the file name you created.  then at the bottom of the page hit SAVE PAGE and your done.... finally! Good luck!


 * Just a couple of notes on filenames. First off, you can even make it more descriptive (such as "Profile of Hannah Thorndike.jpeg"). Spaces are allowed just as in normal page names.
 * Secondly, you don't need to worry all that much about remembering the filename. Just as contribution to the wiki, nothing is ever lost. Just click on "my contributions" (up in the upper right corner, by the "log in" link). This will list all of your contributions. You can also restrict it to the "File" namespace to show only uploads and edits to page description pages. Hope that helped. --Swift (talk) 18:30, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
