How to Write and Post a Summary

After you have read your article, you will be posting a summary of it on this blog. The instructions for how to write a summary are posted here. Remember, don't look at the article while you are writing the actual words to avoid plagiarism and to make sure you've understood what you read.

After you've typed your summary in Microsoft Word, you will need to do the following:

  1. Go to www.blogger.com.
  2. Use the username and password Ms. Berthiaume gave you in class to log into this blog.
  3. Click "New Post."
  4. Make the title of your post "Your last name - Title of your article" ex. "Phillips - Obama Cancels Constellation Program."
  5. Post your summary in the large text box.
  6. Click "Publish Post."

Then begin reading posts by your peers. When you have a post that you are ready to respond to, look at the instructions in the next blog post here entitled "How to Comment on Blog Posts."
