Blog Guidelines

• Keep blogs positive and don't use them for slander or to attack others.
• Never post provocative pictures of yourself or anyone else, and be sure any images you provide do not reveal any of the previously mentioned information. Always remember to look at the background of a picture too.
• Dont offer any personal information including your last name, contact information, home address, phone numbers, school's name, e-mail address, last names of friends or relatives, instant messaging names, age, or birth date.
• Only post things that you would want everyone (in school, at home, in other countries) to know. Ask yourself: Is this something I want everyone to see?
• Think before you post.  Ask yourself: What could be the consequences of this post?
• Know who you’re communicating with.  Ask yourself: Who is going to look at this, and how are they going to interpret my words?
• Consider your audience. Ask yourself: Do I have a good reason/purpose to do this?
• Know how to give constructive feedback. Ask yourself: What will I cause by writing this post?
• Treat other people the way you want to be treated. Ask yourself: Would I want someone to say this to me?
• Use appropriate language and proper grammar and spelling. Ask yourself: Would I want this post to be graded for proper grammar and spelling?
• Only post information that you can verify is true (no gossiping). Ask yourself: Is this inappropriate, immature or bullying?
