How to Use the Blog

Students will make more or less two entries in the blog per week. The number of entries need not be exactly equal each week, but students must not altogether wait until the end of the semester.

To get on the blog, supply the instructor with an email address and a username. Please do NOT use a recognizable username. Initials, for example, are too recognizable. The instructor will print and pass a list of student names and usernames to the class. These lists will be for the use of class members only.

Blogger.com will email you with the invitation to join the blog and an URL where you can start a Google account and join the blog. You will be able to choose a password at that time and manage your own password. That means you need to remember your own password: the instructor will not know it.

Possible topics for blog response includes anything relevant to the class, its administration, your own related projects, and anything else that you might feel comfortable discussing in a classroom environment.
