Today you will be doing 2 things: grading your peers and finding an image related to your subject matter upon which you will base your next post.
#1. Use your grading sheets to evaluate the Introduction post and “Help” post of the blogs above and below your own blog on this website (within your own class section). That means you will have evaluated 4 posts by the end of the class period. Remember the Introduction post only had to be at least 225 words.
#2. With the remainder of your time find an image that relates to your subject matter, about which you will write your next post. In this post you will
- cite where you found the image,
- analyze the content of the image, and
- give scholastic commentary on a specific topic in your subject through the image.
Note: This means that your next blog will be held accountable for meeting the requirements in sections 1-3, and 5 of the rubric. Check out the rubric to see what that entails.
This assignment will be due at the beginning of class on Thursday.
