CURRENT WEEK: SCROLL IF NEEDED. Some people may be working one week or even two weeks ahead - so you might need to scroll down their list of blog posts to make sure you are reading the posts for the current week.

READ CAREFULLY. It is very important that you read the two posts carefully and that you make specific comments back on each of those two posts. Each comment must be a minimum of 60 words in length - that's a solid 2-3 sentences. You can always write more than that, of course - there is no maximum limit for this assignment, and hopefully you will find you have lots to say in replying to each of the posts you read. A great way to count words for something short like a blog comment is to use the Word Count Plus add-on for the Firefox browser.

REMEMBER TO SAY HI. This assignment is a big part of how you will get to know other people in class - so make sure you say "Hi" and use the person's name, so that you can start to learn the names of other people in class.

Want to reply? If you want to reply to a comment someone has left you, you can click on their name (which is underlined and is a clickable link), and this will take you to their Profile page, where you can leave a comment for them at their "Comment Wall."
