Welcome to your class blog

Welcome ladies. We will be using Blogger to explore, well...Blogging. 

So what is a Blog? A blog  is a discussion or informational site published on the World Wide Web and consisting of discrete entries ("posts") typically displayed in reverse chronological order (the most recent post appears first). Until 2009 blogs were usually the work of a single individual, occasionally of a small group, and often covered a single subject. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blog

Reasons why we're using a blog? Since we are all contributors and we all have different experiences we all benefit from each of our contributions. They allow us to collaborate on subjects, create instant engagement on subjects we might not cover in class and help us improve our understanding of tech and digital communications.

Please follow these Guidelines:

• Write your comment as you would a letter. Use correct spelling, grammar and punctuation. No acronyms ie: LOL 
• Never reveal personal information about yourself. No last names, addresses, screen names, email names. This is a public space so anything you say can be seen by anyone in the world.
• Never disrespect someone. "Do unto others as they would do unto you."  No matter what someone writes, respect their opinion and do not offend. 
• Don't just write your opinion. Include facts, from sources you find. Link to the sources but do not include something you have not analyzed first. 
• Be aware of copyright. Make sure what you use is copyright free. (Just because you found it online does not mean it is free for you to use without permission). 
• Stay on topic and keep it about education.
