__Concepts Covered: Universal Design__
We discussed Universal Design versus Feature Creep. Universal Design seeks to increase accessibility to all populations, not overly complicate with options. We reviewed the principles of design.



__Period Overview__
Today we went over Google Earth and Skype. We learned about how easily navigable Google Earth is and how to get directions and how to search for resources we can use in the classroom. For example, a History teacher can search within a city for historical societies or registered landmarks. We also were introduced to Skype, an internet telephone service that is free. Simply create a user name and follow the instructions provided.



__Notes__
Recall: Principles of Design



__Assignments/Projects__
