Welcome. Bienvenido. Willkommen. 欢迎. Bienvenue. ترحيب. Kuwakaribisha. καλωσόρισμα. Howdy.

Welcome to my blog.  You will be referring to this blog often - for assignments, announcements, to see what we did in class, and just to read my words of wisdom.

I'll be reading your words of wisdom, too, since you will be keeping a blog.  It is a big part of your grade, so let's make sure you get off on the right foot.  Here are some suggestions for good blogkeeping.
  • Switch your browser to Google Chrome.
  • Bookmark my blog, and put it in your Bookmarks bar.
  • If you don't have one already, create your own Gmail account.  Make note of your username and password.
  • Create your own blog for Western Civilization through blogger.com.
  • Bookmark your blog, and put it in your Bookmarks bar.
  • Very important: Email the web address for your blog to rschick@johncarroll.org
  • Make sure your postings will be in Eastern Time (Design -> Settings -> Language and formatting).
A crucial component of this course is your written contributions.  You are expected to post to your blog whenever we have class - usually four times a week.  Your posting is due before midnight on that same night, except on Fridays, when the blog is due midnight Saturday night.  You need to complete all the above steps so you don't fall behind right off the bat.  See me after school in Room 121 (the TV Studio) if you need help.
