I have spent time this weekend going over the student blogs. There are some very creative efforts, so far.
Here are some things I am expecting to see in all the blogs, so far.
- Use a professional style, the one with a main page and tabs.
- Create a redirect home page. This is so that anyone typing in your home page won’t see the temporary place holder.
- Change the header photo on the blog opening page. No roosters or foliage please!
- Write an coherent introduction for your opening page. Who are you? What are interested in? Why should I want to read your blog?
- Use tags and categories for your entries.
- Watch the spelling and grammar of your entries. Although bog entries tend to be informal, they should be readable.
