1. Don’t write last names, phone numbers or addresses of yourself or other students.

2. Always make sure you check over your post for spelling errors, grammar errors, and your use of words.

3. Don’t post photos with just one or two people in them. Get a photo of your team or a group of friends instead. Don’t identify people in photos.

4. Avoid hurting other people’s feelings. A blog is not the place to get even with others. Do not write personal insults in your posts or in comments,

5. Do not use bad language or promote unethical actions in your blog or on the blogs of others.

6. Keep comments on-topic. Respond to the content of the post, it’s not the place to send personal messages.

7. Follow blogging conventions.

Blogging Conventions

Do NOT write with ALL capital letters! On the Internet, that is shouting and is considered very rude.

Put one space between words. Put one space after periods. To go to the next line, press the return key.

For 95% of what you write, plain text is all you want to use. To use something else, you must have a good reason.

You use bold for things like subtitles.

You use italics if you’re using words in another language or you’re referring to the title of a movie, TV show or CD.
