Still Watching and Wondering

This blogging is very educational. I really enjoy learning on the computer new ways of using technology. Maybe this should be my focus for my project.

I have real trouble with Access, however we are using it at school to take attendance when a student comes into the media center. Robin Young sent me the software program that she uses at Avon. It has been real helpful especially since my principal is so data driven. The thing is, I always have to get my techie to help with it. So, we are working out the kinks to make it better for us. We use one laptop which is not hooked to the internet and another one that is. Given the set up at our school, I would like it to be set up a little differently and have both computers merged together for this program. I am not sure how we can do this but we are working on it. It seems that whenever something is transferred from one computer to the other to combine the information, it does not go together. It stays in separate databases. If I could just download from one and put it in the other, life would be a little simpler. Any suggestions? Someone familiar with Access?

Commenting

In my blog, instead of posting a new blog. I commented to my previous blog asking a question. I should have posted a new blog. When the blog is posting the times how do I make it the same time as my computer? My computer is set at the right time, but the posting says 10:42 a.m. when I actually posted it in the afternoon at 1:42 p.m. How do I correct this? Or can I?

Watching

I know it has been a few days since I have blogged. I have been thinking about what I want to research. Bullying was last post. I got on our SIRS researcher database at school to look at the top 50 topics. I am interested in mental depression because of suffering from it. I am interested in obesity because I am unhealthy and would like to be healthier.

I really want to learn about blogs because I would like to create a blog on my website at school for students to talk about books. So, this is my test. Something has got to peak my interest or give me a focus. Until next time...
