CI Spring 2011: Welcome
This is the start of something new. Every week, I would like you to find two (2) news articles, dated within the week, on topics that we have discussed in class or possibly could discuss. This could be anything important that you deem necessary to talk about. Remember how class works, though: we must be realistic. Don’t bring me something about conspiracy or a topic that is questionable.
Instructions are simple:
1. From your Dashboard, Select from the top bar of options “Link.”
2. Give it a title (subject, title of article, something professional)
3. Post the URL (web address; ie: http://www.tumblr.com/….)
4. Add a description. In this description, you will need to:
* Give a brief summary of the article and topic in discussion.
* Include your opinion on the article and topic. No bashing! Nothing hateful.
* Be truthful, be real, and be respectful.
Once you have done this, Post! Since you are following me, I will receive your new post on my dashboard. If you have any problems, send me an email to the address at the top of my page. You know the drill.
