from the teacher IPad to the Apple TV for the class to view.

resumes and that the students have a platform on which to finish their work if they
have not done so during the allotted instructional time. Students who have not finished
their resumes in class must do so as homework. Students who also need to continue to
make revisions to their career essays must also do so as homework.

Google Docs so that appropriate revisions and comments may be addressed.
