Blog Setup

Posted on42 Comments

 

    We will setup our blogs Fri­day 28-Aug in class; instruc­tions below.
    — feel to mod­ify and update yours as much as you’d like!

 

Once you cre­ate your blog, please post your link in a com­ment below.
*This is impor­tant so I have your URL! (to update the blogroll)

    Note if you’d pre­fer your blog to be private,
    fol­low these instruc­tions — be sure to give me (and class­mates?) access
  • Rec­om­mended: you can set indi­vid­ual posts and pages to pri­vate using Vis­i­bil­ity settings

 

In your first entry (a “post,” not a comment):

1. briefly intro­duce your­self: need not to be extent of “Inter­est Inven­tory,” and this is pub­lic intro­duc­tion to class­mates (sug­gested your major, minor/program, and grade level; plus, any past writ­ing courses and/or your cur­rent classes and major/field area of interest.)
2. your idea and “work­ing def­i­n­i­tion” of “world­view” and of “experience”
3. any other inter­est­ing infor­ma­tion or media you’d like to share
(e.g. exam­ple of some­thing “thought-provoking” you read or saw or heard?)
or a favorite image or video, pop cul­ture form or meme from past or present?)
