Blog Entries and Class Blog

The syllabus is the starting point for information about the course. As the semester progresses, regular announcements and further information about class will be posted on this class blog.

In addition to being a source of information about the class, the class blog is also the place where class members can access each others’ blogs. As soon as you set up your own blog, email the URL to me (bcondon@wsu.edu) so that I can enter it on the right-hand side of this page.

Regular blog posts
Each class member will post one blog entry each day there are assigned readings.

• For assigned readings, each class member will post a blog entry of at least one page (400 words) that responds to the readings for that day’s class.
• Responses do not have to encompass the entire reading assignment or presentation. Instead, pick an issue, develop an insight, add your own knowledge, or frame a question about the day’s reading or presentation and post that as your blog entry.
• Each week, I will choose some your entries and link them to the course blog for general response. You will earn points for each blog entry, each entry selected for the class blog, and responses to entries chosen for the class blog.

Points are awarded for all entries that are on time and done in good faith (see syllabus).
