Cross-posting, starting revision of CATW in Google Docs (10/21)

Part I
For the first thirty minutes of class, we will be checking artifacts posted by others. First we will start with our class.
  • Click on the different blogs in the blogroll on the right. 
  • Scroll down to see what the blog author posted as her/his artifacts.Sometimes you have to click "Older Posts" to see all the artifacts.
  • Vote by clicking on their "Reactions" button, and if you want, leave a comment.
When you find a blog post you REALLY like and you want to cross-post to your blog:
  • Leave a comment on the post.
  • Click on the "Blog This!" button. A window will pop up with a link to the person's post. Add a short message IN THE BEGINNING of your cross-post that says "I liked [insert name here]'s post because______"   and click "Publish Post."

Now repeat the activity with our sister class, Living in the Matrix

Part II
Rewriting your CATW.
