Know Your Blogging Duties

Hello Class,

It is time to know your blogging duties and responsibilities. There are a few basic things you must have in order to continue this lesson.

First of all, you must know your username and password. Your username is often your gmail account. Then your password can be what you need it to be. Once you have logged in, your assignment is to post comments, read others and then post to theirs as well.

We will be using this as a major form of communication going forward. You must "Follow" the blog and be familiar in how to communicate through it.

Mr. Ohren

Welcome & Hello

OK class, here we go. This is going to be an ongoing assignment that you will be expected to check-in on throughout the semester. The comments and questions that are posted will be a significant part of your grade in Middle School Media Class.

Here is how it is going to work. First, check out my blog and become familiar with it. Then go to Google and create an account that can be used to make posts on this blog. Then finally, come back to the blog and post that your account has been created. THIS WILL BE YOUR FIRST GRADE FOR BLOGGING IN CLASS.

Then on a daily basis, come back to see what new questions or assignments I may have posted, or comment on the postings by your classmates. This is an open, but closely watched blog. DO NOT MISUSE IT! Doing so will have you removed from the Media Class or perhaps doing everything on paper. That is certainly a serious choice and consequence.

GOOD LUCK! ENJOY! BE Safe, Respectful and Responsible.
