This blog will serve as the platform for us to exchange brilliant ideas during the semester.
A few things to do here:
1. Respond to readings
Please post a short response to assigned readings (as early as possible but no later than 24 hours before our class meeting -- that is noon, Tuesday).
The purpose is to make sure you go through the readings as well as to provoke analytical/critical/creative thinking on issues to be discussed in class.
You should first read through the assigned readings for the week and then share your thoughts/questions/examples with us. If you have an online example, please include the link in your post (and make it clickable, and hopefully open in a new tab).
Please label your posts using both "your screen name" (no need to use your real name, but be consistent throughout the semester) and "week #".
Feel free to comment on your classmates' posts.
Please write in short paragraphs so that it is easy to read online and in class.
2. If you come across any interesting/relevant news stories worthy of our attention, please post the link here. We expect everyone to share one story every other week (i.e., about 7 stories per semester). Briefly explain why you think the story is important.
(If you have questions about the technical side of blogging, please let me know.)
Thank you and let's have a wonderful semester.
