Welcome to your class blog.

Hello ladies. Welcome to St. Saviour and your Freshman Technology blog. A blog, for anyone who doesn't know, is a web page that is updated and typically contains information about a specific subject. Blogger is free with your Google account and you can create your own to share what you are passionate about with the world.

A blog is a powerful tool because of the contributions of its followers. Commenting on our class blog will be part of your grade throughout the year.

Please follow these Guidelines:
  • Write your comment as you would a letter. Use correct spelling, grammar and punctuation. No acronyms ie: LOL 
  • Never reveal personal information about yourself. No last names, addresses, screen names, email names. This is a public space so anything you say can be seen by anyone in the world.
  • Never disrespect someone. "Do unto others as they would do unto you."  No matter what someone writes, respect their opinion and do not offend. 
  • Don't just write your opinion. Include facts, from sources you find. Link to the sources but do not include something you have not analyzed first. 
  • Be aware of copyright. Make sure what you use is copyright free. (Just because you found it online does not mean it is free for you to use without permission). 
  • Stay on topic and keep it about education.  
We will go over in class what I expect of the blog. Please respond to this post to test that you can comment and you setup your blogger account correctly.

  3. My Top 5 Resources:
    Google Classroom-- I use it in every class to get my work done.
    Google-- To look things up when not in school.
    Ms.Turnbull.com-- An online version of the history textbook, which keeps me from having to take it home and to class.
    Google docs--To type up essays for school.
    Netflix-- For when I am not doing homework until late at night.
