ONLINE CLASS/Blog Critique Assignment, Week 12

You are to meet online this week and post your critique of your partner's blog.  Here's an example of what a Blog Critique will look like. A HYPERLINK TO BLACKBOARD. I want each of you to create your own chart for your partner. Assume the role of teacher (knowing that you want to inspire your peer to continue revising/editing their final product)

TO START OFF WITH A COMPLIMENT and a DECEMBER FORECAST:
Nice job last week (I'll be posting videos/digital stories soon on the SSTC website that EDU 700 is developing).  Looking ahead, the next time we will convene is Dec. 10th. This is a long, long time for you to get the portfolio assignment completed with your group. All group projects must be DIGITAL Google Doc (or you can be creative if you'd like and use another Web 2.0 application or the SmartBoard Notebook software).

TODAY WE WILL: 

1. Work in groups to plan the Portfolio Assignment. Everything you need to complete this assignment is in your textbook.  You will be graded individually and by your group members. If you do not return emails, do not do your share of the work, or forget to post an individual reflection on Blackboard (click on the Discussion Board) you risk earning a very low grade. Please pay attention to details (and I will try as well). This entire project should take at least 10 hours of your waking hours over the next three weeks.
2. Discuss Grades. Plan to check Blackboard quite a bit, and my Blogger, and your group's Facebook pages. My intention is to send each of you an update in relation to your grades for blogs (class blogs and L&S blogs).
