Guidelines

1. Wikispace & Blogspace are to be treated as classroom spaces … school rules apply. (no inappropriate topics, language, etc.,; conduct yourself accordingly, whether you are writing or responding.) 2. Read before you link. 3. First, and foremost, the wikispace & blogspace are a tool for learning and will be treated as such. Posts must be reflective of what we are discussing in class; media studies, not what you are doing on the weekend. 4. Creative Commons License. 5. Your blog is a public space. It is on the Internet. It is there forever. Even if you delete your blog, links to it may exist. Don’t post anything that you will regret years from now (think future employer or future mother-in-law) 6. Post what you are proud of. Your work should be done in Word first, edited, then posted when it is perfect. Published and Final Draft mean the same thing. 7. Keep your identity to yourself. You may post an avatar, but not your picture; nor should you give out your address or phone number.
