Ms. Eades' Golden Rules

"I have never let schooling interfere with my education." --Mark TwainWelcome to Ms. Eades' history blogssay (essay posted on blog) forum!

For the next 8 weeks, we will be responding to essay questions in a digital format. This is an opportunity for you to gain immediate access to teacher and peer review, as well as an opportunity for you to improve upon your historical analysis. Before we get started,there are a few rules for you to read.

Ms. Eades' Golden Rules of Blogssay Forum Writing:

1) Absolutely NO PROFANITY! This includes all common swear words, innuendo, racial slurs or links to profane websites. Do NOT post anything that Ms. Eades may find offensive.

2) Keep in mind that Ms. Eades finds most things offensive:) Anything posted that is offensive will be reported to the dean immediately.

3) Only use constructive criticism. No name-calling, insults or otherwise hurtful comments.

4) NO TEXT LANGUAGE! I h8 txt. OMG, pls. Ur smarter than that.

5) Ms. Eades' Golden Rules of Writing apply to everything posted on this site. Your grade will be determined based on writing quality as well as content.

6) Please stay on topic. I don't want to hear about where you got your nails did, what latest itune you just downloaded or why I should try Vikki's new lip gloss. Historical topics only!
