Blogging Directions 2011-12

Blog posts will happen every two to four weeks, depending on the schedule. Students submit proposals for posts, and the Blogwizard will select among them through a formula including 1) variety of source and submitter 2) controversy  of topic 3) importance of discussion 4) wind direction. Blogs should be proofread, and should have original ideas and/or refer to other posts. The most interesting comments express a clear viewpoint. Grading: 0 is no submission, 1 is poorly proofed and expressed, 2 is fair/good, 3 is excellent. Blogging will generally be over a weekend. No submissions after 2pm Friday, and no comments should be submitted after 9pm Sunday. Suggested length is 100 to 150 words. Wise bloggers write in WORD, proof, and paste comments.
