Blog lovin' in B209

Students have been writing their This I Believe essay over the past two weeks and they were shared with me today. I also collected the marked-up draft from Wednesday so I can see the process of their revision.

I'll grade the essays by early next week, and students may conference with me, revise again to improve their essay, and I'll score it again.

The PBL for this marking period will have students posting their TIB essays to a blog they create with other students. I encourage students to set the permissions for the blog to 'private' so that only their PBL team and I can read them. If you'd like to see their blog, wait just a week or so and ask for the URL. It's a fun--and real world--project.
