Grading your blog posts

Looks like about half the class has posted an item on the class blog so far. If you are having problems, please talk to me in class Monday. These posts do count -- 10 pts/post @ 1 post/wk x 13 wks = 130 points -- so you don't want to ignore this assignment.

Here's how I'm grading your blog posts: If your post is well-written, interesting, and relevant to the class, and it includes links to the original source material and/or supporting information, you'll get 10 out of 10 points. If it's missing any of those elements, you'll lose a point per missing element. And if I spot any typos, grammatical errors, misused words, etc., you'll lose one point per error. So keep your copy clean or you'll quickly run out of points.
