Writing Blog Posts

Blogs posts are worth 35 XP!

Guidelines:

• Reflect on readings/learning in an LTMS 525 land
• Relate and share a learning technology resource
• Ask questions based on a learning theory scenario
• Be sure the blog post content is clearly connected to the selected learning theory land.

Reply to comments on your blog post for an ongoing discussion when appropriate

Create a discussion in the Moodle forum to receive XP for your blog post.

• The subject of the Moodle forum discussion should include one of the lands of learning theories for which you created a blog post (e.g. "Cognitive View:"), as well as the title of your blog post
• The body of the discussion should include a link to your blog post from this blog site.

Full XP will be given to blog posts that are well written, clear and concise.  Blog posts should also be reflective and approach a subject from a unique perspective in order to receive full XP.
