Welcome to the course and welcome to the course blog. Blogging will play a big role in this class. You'll be reading this blog and I'll be reading all of your blogs. That's right, we'll all be blogging.
Your blog will be the place you post your weekly article responses. These weekly written responses will make up the majority of your grade for the course. Since there's no research paper assignment, I'll be expecting you to put a strong effort into your blogs posts.
My blog will be the place I'll post reading assignments and questions for you to comment on and be prepared to discuss in class. I've created a Blackboard course also, but I'll use it mainly to post scanned readings and to post your grades. Blogging will be our primary mode of communication outside the classroom.
In the next post I'll describe how to create your blog.
