The fine print:
Your blog is a space for your thoughts/questions/rants but please remember that it is, ultimately, a public work that is part of a school assignment hosted on a widely accessible website.
Don’t post any personal information, links or photos (of yourself or others) and keep your language and comments appropriate to that which would be used in a classroom setting. Inability to follow these rules will result in academic and disciplinary consequences
