Technology and You- Monday- 1st period

"Welcome back, guys," Kitty said as everyone got back to the computer lab setup in the Danger Room. "Even to those of you I saw on the trip. And speaking of, you might be wondering how a trip like that might be arranged. Okay, you're probably not, but at some point you might want to take a trip of your own, and this is how you're going to learn to do it.

"First of all, you're going to want to research the trip, and think about when you want to go. Get online, ask people, go to the library and look stuff up. Find out how hot or cold it is, when they're the busiest, and you can decide when to go based on that. Or you flip that around, but either way, know what you're getting into," she said. "And then you have options on actually booking a trip. You can call a travel agent and have them work things out for you, or you can go down to the Portalocity office and work it out, but the most common option is to book it online or via and app. Now, whether you go via plane, train, bus, ship, or portal, the basic information you need will be the same.

At this point she started using the handy dandy projection to show them how to input their start and destination, dates, and walked them through the process of selecting a flight, seats, and inputting personal information. "Next week we'll be working more on travel, but for now I want you to do some idea trip planning. Figure out a place you want to go- or a time if you're going the portal route- decide how you want to go, and then do some research online and see what kinds of things you'd like to do there."
