Post 1 - Information about blogs & Who am I

 Hi Students,

Welcome to our first blog post.

Today we are going to get started on our blogs. Everyone will create their own blog as well as follow my blog and your classmates, so that we can comment on each other's posts. 

Blog Assessment
Blogs are 20% of your final grade. There will be 8 blog post assignments. There are 2 ways they are graded:

1. Blog post task completion. (50% of blog assessment grade)

• Full >> 7 (completed the post within 48 hours)
• Partial >> 4 (If you completed the post but after 48 hours)
• Not done >> 1

For example, if you complete all 8 blog post assignments you will obtain 56 points which is a 7.0.

2. I will choose 2 of your blog posts and assess each of them according to the following criteria - Task, Lexis, Grammar. (50% of blog assessment grade)

3 points>>
Task: All aspects of the task are very well handled.
Lexis: Excellent use of lexical resources
Grammar: Grammar is excellent and almost error-free

2 points>>
Task: The task is sufficiently handled
Lexis: Good use of lexical resources /Coherence generally well handled.
Grammar: Grammar is adequate despite minor errors

1 point>>
Task: Some details of the task are missing or erroneous
Lexis: Some problems with word formation and usage. Occasional lapses in coherence that hinders clarity of message
Grammar: Grammar is weak with noticeable errors

0 points>>
Task: Writing is unrelated to task
Lexis: Incorrect or erroneous lexis usage (or flaws in coherence) that hinders communication of message
Grammar: Too many grammar errors to convey message

In this section, the maximum score for each post is 9 points, which equals a 7.0 grade.
