Welcome Spring 2013 Students!

Blogging. I know it's not new. In fact, some of you may be thinking, "Not another page to maintain!" or "Holy buckets, she wants me to publish my writing for all to see?!"

This is a course about literacy, after all.

At a minimum, your blog will be a personalized, professional space to document your learning experiences this semester. In addition, you now have an authentic audience--not only your instructor, but your classmates, as well. Eventually, you may decide to share your blog with family, friends, and classmates from other classes. Your blog might even evolve into more than reflections on your learning--links to educational resources, websites, videos, your own digital creations...the possibilities are literally endless. Could it become a site to share with your adviser, supervising teacher, potential employer? YES.

Or, it can simply be the space in which you reflect on your learning this semester. That's okay, too.
