Blogging is an important part of digital citizenship and we hope to utilize blogger to develop our own digital voices that can be heard around the world. Remember that we should always observe the proper netiquette while posting and commenting. Please do not type in ALL CAPS because it makes others feel like you are screaming at them! The school rules continue to apply to all blogging activities. Remember that the readers cannot tell the mood or the tone of your post or comment because they cannot observe your facial expressions or hear how you are saying something, so exercise precision of language to avoid potential disagreements. Always cite your work and write in complete sentences. Spelling and grammar never take a vacation! Hundreds, possibly thousands, will read your work. Help them by writing in a manner that is easily understood. Nothing truly disappears once it is published, so proofread everything you type before you publish it. Lastly, but most importantly, have fun!
Mr. Bender
