The blogging requirement for our class is very easy to comply with. It's not even as scary or as daunting as you think.
Post at least five (5) blog entries each week. If you write one entry everyday before you go to bed, this requirement should be easy to comply with.
Four (4) out of the five required entries will be on topics of your own choice. One entry will be on a topic assigned by your instructor; the topic will be announced through your instructor's blog at http://elmermontejo.blogspot.com.
From time to time I may require that you write on more than one specific topic. In such cases, the required topics will be deducted from the total required; that is, if this week you are to write on two topics, you will be left with three more topics of your own choice.
If you have limited access to Internet facilities, you might consider writing your drafts on paper first. Then, on Fridays or Saturdays, go to an Internet cafe and upload your entries in one go.
Each blog entry should be at least 500 words. It's very easy to go beyond this minimum, but I won't mind if you go beyond 500 words.
Feel free to comment on my or your classmates' blog. Your comments should be substantive, though, and not just pranks or useless stuff like "hehehe" or "LOL".
If you notice any error—mechanical, grammatical, stylistic, factual, or whatever—on my blog, please alert me right away. You will receive extra points for knowing much better than I do. I'm not kidding. *GRIN*
If you have great ideas for our blogging project, please let me know. We'd like this project not just to be a worthwhile learning experience but also to be a fun, and enjoyable activity that you can continue doing even after you leave school.
I will post here the rubrics for grading your blogs soon.
