Guideline for Blog Post Responses
Guideline for Blog Post Responses
Your goal for responding to the posts of your classmates should be to add to the direction of their responses by elaborating on the evidence they have given, or to offer an alternative idea or concern. You do not need to weaken the arguments in your classmates' blogs. Above all else you should be respectful and polite, in other words, watch your tone. While you may offer some amendments, please do so with tact and respect. Your response should be written in a well-written paragraph of approximately seven sentences.
