Some things we have discussed several times in class:
  • Assignments on your blog - you add a POST to your blog, do NOT create a new blog for each assignment
  • Assignments on your website - you add a PAGE to your website, do NOT create a new blog for each assignment.
  • I have a spreadsheet with all your original links for your blogs and websites- this is what I check-
  • This week please check with me to make sure your links are correct-
