Starting your blog

Your Blog:

For this unit you will write blog entries in each lesson about the topics covered. It is important to think about the guidelines below:

Be detailed as possible - this is your blog and the more you add the more there is to mark.

Don't plagiarise  - I would rather read your words than anyone else's. We will know and this has to be reported to the head of the department. 

Design the blog - it's your blog.

Keep it clean! 

Use proper English - think of the blog as something an external examiner will see as well. It must make sense to the reader. If I comment on any language in my comments please go back and correct your work. It may be useful to ask someone to look over your work prior to posting. 

Use appropriate headings for posts - if i can't find it I can't mark it. 

Add videos and pictures to illustrate your point - but please add a comment as to why you have included it on your blog. 

You can add an audio file of your commentary or a video explanation if you prefer. 

Look at comments - these are there to guide and help you. Ask if you don't understand a comment or want to know where to look for additional information.
