Blog Introduction

Hello there APUS students. I am glad you have found your way to the class blog! This is an experiment that I hope will lead to greater communication between me and you and between each other.

To make this as pleasant an experience as possible, here are a few basic rules:
1) All posts should have to do in some way with US History
2) No foul language of any sort will be tolerated
3) Any web links posted to the blog also need to be appropriate
4) All posts and comments are to be treated with respect

Some suggestions:
- Feel free to pose questions to the class as issues arise. Make sure the questions are clear and concise. We will be working a lot on what makes a good question, so I expect them to get better as the year goes on.

Other information of note:
- the syllabus and assignments will always be after all of the posts, so scroll down to find them

Posting will help your grade...
writing on the blog is not required, but for each post or comment you make on the blog you will be given credit for an extra assignment. It's worth it!

Ok, with those rules in place, let's get started...
