Quite a few of you have adjustments you need to make on your blogs; inappropriate comments, inappropriate avatars, blogs that have your full name, other students' or teachers' names, the school's name, the city's name, and/or pictures of yourself. This must change. Check your blog, remove as needed.
If someone can browse through your blog, comments on your blog, or your uploaded PDF file and find out your full name, our school's name, or a teacher's or student's name, then your blog is releasing personal information online, which is against district policy. So, if any of that is you... (check, don't just assume) then fix it.
Think about this first six weeks. How well are you progressing through this class? What can you tell me about what you've learned and gained from this period of time in this class? How could these things benefit you in the future?
(hint, hint) Review (hint, hint)
Review the following concepts. If you don't remember them, maybe you should look them up.
- What is a blog? Is it a verb or a noun? What about commenting on blogs?
- What is an avatar? What does it mean and where does the term originate?
- What is digital citizenship/netiquette? What are some reasons it is important?
- What is Pages? What is its purpose?
- What is Royalty Free Imagery/stock photography? What is Public Domain? How are these beneficial?
- What is a citation? Why are they important? How can different internet websites make them easier?
- What is a PDF? Why are they useful?
Make sure you review them before the (hint, hint) last thirty minutes of class (hint, hint) .
Work on your Pages projects!
If you look up subtle in the dictionary, there's a picture of you.
