TELL YOUR FRIENDS!!!

It's been a pleasure reading some of your blog posts.  Though I urge you all to quickly remind/talk to your friends regarding the following points:

• Follow Mr. L's blog and your peers (I can see many have still not added their peers via the Reading List distributed in class)

• This ISP is worth 5% of your overall, final grade.  If the course ended today,  some of your classmates would get ZERO (hence reduce your current average by 5%).  If some choose not to participate, that is their choice.  Just ensure your friends know that contributions must be distributed through out the semester and I will not consider or read a "heavy" load of posting near course's end (this does not give a chance for your peers to contribute to the conversation).

• As per the rubric, in order to achieve a Level 3 with respect to participation, one is expected to make a blog posting:

a) Every two weeks
b) Responding to at least 5 others' blogs (over a two week average)

Though this ISP is fluid, by my count, here are the calendar "deadlines" you should use as your guide for meeting the above two requirements:
 
November 5
November 19
December 3
December 17
December 31
January 14

So for example, by the 19ish, you should have two posts completed and have made at least 10 responses to peers.


Looking forward to reading more of your blogs and please take a quick minute to review the requirements of this ISP with your friends.  Thanks!
