BLOG RULES

Blog Guidelines--each week "a question of the week" will be asked to the class. All students are required to respond by using the criteria below.

1-Each scholar must take a decisive stance/opinion and provide accountable reasons to support your position.

2-Each response must be at least 350 word count but cannot exceed 550 word count. (no profanity, slang, texting abbreviations, grammar mistakes--USE SPELL CHECK). **Hint always type your response in Microsoft Word first, highlight your entry, then go to TOOLS>WORD COUNT to make sure you are in the 350-550 word count.

3-Scholars can only post once per topic.

4-All responses must be submitted by Wednesday midnight EST each week (unless otherwise instructed by Mr. Jordan/Ms. Thompson).  Late entries will be read, but they are not counted towards homework or classwork points.

5-The class will critically & RESPECTFULLY analyze the responses of their peers verbally in class each Friday during the FDA water discussion.
6--Please avoid random tangents. Be concise..GET TO THE POINT.

7--DO NOT include any real names of people in the entries.

8-New topics will be announced each Friday in class for the upcoming week.

9-Even if you are absent you are still required to electronically respond.

10-Blog entries are part of your classwork and homework grades.  Failure to participate could greatly affect your overall grade.
