ELA B10: Catching up on blogging…

Some students have been pretty careful to keep up with their blog assignments as they were assigned. Others have fallen quite behind. There are five entries assigned from the Equality unit and there will be two more to be assigned in the Decisions unit.

I’d suggest some students spend a bit of time slowly getting caught up so they won’t be left scrambling at the very end. The blog project is meant to be a cumulative project where students can reflect on their insights from the discussions. It’s equally meant to offer them a forum to express themselves in their own way, present their thoughts in a unique format, use the internet and blog as a way to publish their work, while being able to share comments on peer blogs as well. It’s a great learning tool, but like all tools works better when it’s used more regularly.

Use the checklist (here) to make sure you’ve completed all that is required. Your blog project will be evaluated in the last week of June, during your final exams, and is worth 10% of your overall mark. Don’t assume it’s not important!
