- explain why commenting helps create a sense of community and interaction
- discuss two other points from the readings about commenting that you found important
Another point from the Cool Cat blog was about criticizing kindly. There will never be a point in your life when every person in the world agrees with every word you write. There will also never be a time where you agree with every word you read that every one else in the world has written. Because of these facts of life, it is important to follow that "golden rule" from childhood, and express your opinions only in a manner that you would appreciate that person commenting on your work. After all, they very easily might track down your blog and treat you according to how you treated them.
- give the names of the seven blogs (5 from our group + 2 others of your choice) you selected to read and comment on and tell why you selected them
I also commented on History Quester's post about Wikipedia because of the point that community collaboration is difficult because of controversy and potentially offensive topics.
Seger's 23 Things offered a great use for online image generators-making signs for use in her Pre-K classroom, which translates easily to elementary classrooms as well.
Kaiser's 23 Things post about Etsy and it's potential uses in the classroom was brilliant, because it was something original that I had never considered.
Constructive Cognition Collection Project post #2 because it overall was fun to learn about why he chose his avatar and blog name.
Problogger's post about how to improve the number of comments your blog receives because well, I felt compelled to comment on a post about comments.
Finally, I commented on Drape's Takes post "Edublogger Etiquette- Responding to Comments" because I found it made me think about the importance of responding to comments, and sometimes not responding.
