COMMENT: On the course homepage open the "Bad Kharma" link.
COMMENT: the first 5 students to comments will earn extra credit (will be excused if you skip a blog comment in the future.)
You can be humorous, serious, severe, silly. Anything as long as you do your work well (I will delete below-standard fluff.)
Blog comments do not need to be long. Your AUDIENCE is your classmates. Short but incisive is better. Rely on short sentences.
Use a login ID that clearly shows your name. No nick names. This is how you will get to know the other people in the class.
Avoid being banal, predictable, unoriginal. No boilerplate fillers.
You want your ideas, your perspective, your Weltanschauung to come through.
You don't know what Weltanschauung means? Look it up. (Required)
REPLY: wait until at least 10 students posted their comments.
Choose ONE of those comments and REPLY to it.
DO NOT START WITH "I agree" or "I disagree".
Say something meaningful, like: "Your comment made me think that......" "It's interesting how you look at this issue...." "I will be a teacher, and I think....." "Unfortunately I was in one of those situations...."
SAVE YOUR COMMENTS: Create a file (FILENAME: yourlastname.blog format: docx, doc or rtf). Copy and save ALL YOUR COMMENTS (COMMENTS ONLY - NOT YOUR REPLIES).
You will turn it in at the end of the semester.
