Blog Writing Assignments

These are your blog writing assignments. Each entry must be at least 120 words every week. You might want to write the entry in MS Word so you can do easy spell-checking and word counts. Please stay on the topic given. Please do NOT copy and paste any text from anywhere else. Always use your own words.

Three of the assignments will be called "Computer Terms." Each time, you must define the term given and explain example(s) (with links, if possible).

After you see the topic here, please go to Blogger and log in.
