We will be using our blog for a variety of things. Our class blog will be for teacher-to-student communication as well as student-to-student communication. It's main purpose will be for you to learn about blogs and what they are used for. We will also use the blog to post assignments, showcase work, or simply have class discussions.
Once an assignment is posted, you will have a specific period of time within which to respond. You may respond to the blog from class, home, the library or any other place that you might have access to the Internet.
Before we begin, there are ground rules that must be set and followed. Note that if these are not followed you may receive a zero on the assignment(s). Please follow the rules!
- All posts must use school appropriate language. When you post, you must write in complete sentences using proper grammar and spelling. Do not use: u, r, ur, b4, cuz, etc.
- When commenting on another student’s post, keep your comments non-personal. You can agree or disagree with a comment but refrain from sarcasm, judgment, and/or put-downs. You must state how you feel and why.
- You must comment on every article, topic, or question from me - it is an assignment - and your response should thoughtfully address each topic and question posted on the blog. You cannot simply write “I agree.”
