To participate in this process effectively, students need to be trained in how to write a quality comment, that is both academic in nature and one that furthers the interaction of the blog post.
To make a quality comment on a post, some things to remember are:
- That the comment is like a letter- it needs to address the blog writer and end with who is writing the comment.
- Edit your work before posting. Check that you have spelled everything correctly and that your punctuation is accurate.
- No Spam please! Remember to make a comment that will contribute to the conversation by adding a question or new thought. Avoid using slang words or lots of icons.
- Use only your first name so as to protect identities. If you are a family member, identify the child that you are related to is enough to identify you. For example: Hayley's Mum
