Hi guys! I just want to set up some ground rules on academic blogging:

1. No innappropriate content will be tolerated. This includes photos, links, and comments.

2. Do not reveal personal information via your profile. Either leave it blank or make it fictional/funny.


Now, for those of you who don't know what to do, here are some suggestions:

1. Link us to a cool site you find about college, something we are studying (literature, authors, grammar, etc.) or some link you just thought was cool.

2. Post a question. This can pertain to class, homework, politics, pet peeves, etc.

3. Comment on other students' posts. Tell 'em what you think!

4. Give us a movie review so we know what to add to our weekend plans.

5. Share thoughts on life, school, assignments, teenagehood, etc.

6. Do your classmates a favor; post the vocab. definitions or homework reminders for those forgetful members.

7. Ask Miss Jones a question. I'm not Jeeves, but I can help you out when it comes to this class and some other minutia.

8. Post an English cartoon, game, or photo. Grammar mistakes found in the public domain always makes me smile. Not because I like grammar mistakes, but because you are able to identify them.

9. Comment on class. Did you like/dislike our discussion? Why? Hated the reading assignment? Why? Loved writing your myth? Why?

These are just suggestions. Explore the possibilities of academic blogging. I'm am excited and interested to see how well you will do with this.
