On Blog Entries

For this class, use of a personal blog is essential. But not only do you need to have a blog, you need to post to it. So, for this course, you will be required to post at least twelve substantive blog entries.

What constitutes a substantive blog entry?

I'm glad you asked!

-A substantive blog post consists of at least two-hundred words on a specific topic.

-Topics should be in some way related to your college experience or your future career interests. (Remember to put the topic in the blog post's title.)

-Some blog posts will be assigned by me. For example:
  • "Find for me three websites related to finding careers in your field. Review each website in at least one paragraph (making a total of at least three paragraphs)."
  • "Read the following article on the future of communications technology, and write a reflection of it in at least three-hundred words.

 -You may post as much as you'd like, as long as it's not off topic. (Don't blog about sports scores, or the weather, or politics, etc., unless it can be applicable to either your college experience and/or future career interests.)

So, in summary:

-At least twelve this semester.

-At least two-hundred words each.

-Stay on topic.
