Hough's – Tech Tricks & Tips

Welcome to Karen's Edublogs Page

Class Blogging Policy

 

Please read this entire document. Then, print a copy and turn in to Mrs. Hough for homework credit. Due on Friday, October 24, 2008.     

 

1.  I will not give out any information more personal than my first name. This means no pictures of myself, my age, email address, home address, school name or location, phone numbers, school ID number or other sensitive information.

2.  I will not link to other sites that can identify my geographical locations, such as a school or district website.

3.  I will not share my password with anyone other than my teachers and parents.

4.  If I see something online that makes me uncomfortable or afraid, I will minimize my screen immediately and report this to my teacher.

5.  I will take blogging seriously, posting only things that are meaningful and taking my time when I write.

6.  I take responsibility for what I post on the blog. I will only post pieces that I am comfortable with everyone seeing (teachers, family, clergy), even 10 years from now (colleges, employers, coworkers).

7.  I will use my blog as an extension of the classroom, posting on any school-appropriate subject.

8.  I will express my ideas, while not over generalizing or making derogatory or inflammatory remarks.

 

I have read and understand that if I do not follow the Class Blogging Policy, my blogging privileges may be revoked.
