Did you know...

The blogging requirements for this class are as follows:

Learning Entry Blogs - Each blog check is worth 100 points (10% each x 3).
You will have a Learning Entries Blog using Blogger that will be checked at three different points during the semester. It is advisable to complete these posts as you work through the weekly modules. The posts you make to your Learning Entries Blog will cover the online content of this course as well as information from class discussions and activities.

* For each Learning Entries Blog check, you must have at least 4 posts that cover the content of those weeks. This information can be taken from readings, presentations, videos, and other resources provided in the online content. You will have other, specific posts to add to your blog that will not be included in these five; they are noted as such in the weekly modules. Your post should be titled in such a way that it is clear as to which week or content topic you are discussing and it must have at least three tags. Also, all posts should meet professional standards in appearance, content, and quality. [5 points per post = 20 points]
* Each post must include at least one separate paragraph summarizing the content covered. [10 points per post = 40 points]
* Each post must include a separate paragraph relating that content to your major field i.e. how you would use it, how it applies or doesn’t, etc. [5 points per post = 20 points]
* Each post must include at least one outside resource that relates to the content or extends your understanding of it in some way. This could be a link to a website or page not covered in class, an embedded or linked video from YouTube or Vimeo or elsewhere online, an image, an audio file, or a link to a PDF article. You may not use work you’ve created for this course as an outside resource. You must give the source of your chosen resource. Additionally, you must give a statement in a separate paragraph describing the resource you chose and a rationale for choosing it (why it relates or why you chose it). Your chosen resource does not have to relate to your major field but it does have to connect to the content covered in your post. [5 points per post = 20 points]
