Let's blog!

This blog is the platform for us to exchange interesting ideas in this seminar!

A few things to do here:

1. Respond to readings

Please post a short response to assigned readings (as early as possible but no later than 3 p.m. the day before class).

The purpose is to provoke analytical/critical/creative thinking on issues to be discussed in class.

You should first read through the assigned readings and then share your thoughts/questions/examples with the class. If you have an online example, please include the link in your post.

Please label your posts using both "your screen name" (no need to use your real name, but be consistent throughout the semester) and the TITLE of the article.

Please write in short, concise manners so that it is easy to read online and in class.

You're expected to respond to 3/4 of the assigned readings throughout the semester.

Feel free to comment on your classmates' posts.


2. This is also the platform where we share online resources (links to Web sites) to each other. 

3. If you come across any interesting/relevant news stories worthy of our attention, please post the link here. We expect everyone to share one story at least once a month (i.e., at least 3 stories throughout the semester). Briefly explain why you think the story is important.

(If you have questions about the technical side of blogging, please let me know.)

Have a wonderful semester!
