1. The two most recent posts on your blog are displayed on the student wiki where everyone (including parents) can see it. Be sure what you write is appropriate and intelligent.

2. Remember that online conduct can have offline consequences. The internet is the real world. What you do there matters.

3. Be sure to use conventional punctuation including capitals in your writing. Don’t use abbreviations or “text messaging” syntax. Be sure to spell check before hitting “publish.”

4. Remember that what you write online can last forever. I’ve set up your blogs so that you aren’t indentified. Before you provide personally identifying information, consider the fact that your site may be visible to some people who aren’t nice and that the words you write might pop up on a google search years from now by future employers not to mention your own children or grandchildren. Use decorum and restraint.
