Blog Guidelines
We will be blogging regularly in class this year. Please take a look and follow the guidelines that are set up for our class blog.
1. Only post what you want EVERYONE to know. Remember Grandma can see this as can someone in China. Therefore don't post personal information.
2. Think before you post. Only write school appropriate things. This means no foul language and slang.
3. Because we are an English class, remember your writing conventions. Avoid "text talk" and slang.
4. If you use any media or quotations from another source, you MUST cite the creator of that idea or work. Essentially, I want to see your ideas.
5. You will be asked to comment on other's blogs at times. Remember our discussion on constructive criticism. This isn't a place to bash someone.
6. As I've seen on many online sites, use the THINK approach:
T - Is it TRUE?
H - Is it HELPFUL?
I - Is it INSPIRING?
N - Is it NECESSARY?
K - Is it KIND?
If you can't answer yes to these, don't post it.
See Mrs. DeVore if you have any questions.
My goal is to make better eye contact. I will try not to stare at the screen the whole time. I will just look at the screen for the main points and then talk about that subject by using my own knowledge.
ReplyDeleteMy goal for this speech is to know what i'm going to say next. No short words in between to think of what is next. I need to know what i have to say and be on my toes. To accomplish this goal i am going to need to practice a bunch and have an outline. I will know i have reached this goal after my speech to see if i knew what i wanted to say and didn't pause to sit there and think. Kara H.
ReplyDeleteMy goal is to give a clear distinct message to the audience without getting nervous. I will achieve this goal by practicing so I know what I'm going to say. I will know that I obtain my goal when I feel confident at the end of the speech that I did a good job.
