Some thoughts on 'comments' to a blog... specifically my blog.  Be sure to read my blog before each class meeting and leave a marker that shows you've been there. Here are some ideas:  use symbols to show quickly your reaction to the blog entry, for example:

• + for "I like this thought/idea"
• - for "I disagree/don't think this is quite right"
• ? for "I'm not sure, I have some questions about this".  

After the symbol add a few words to explain your symbol... like:

• "- this is not how I plan to teach because I think teachers always need to be in charge and be able to answer all student questions?"

OK, now click on the 'comments' word below and leave a symbol and your name to show you have read and understand this post.
