As I signed in to my blog, contemplating the content of my post, an article about blogging standards caught my eye, "Blogging on the Brink: Time to Set Standards" (I tried to make my title link to the website, but to no avail. I'll work on that tomorrow when I am more alert.) Since I teach social skills and encourage students to take responsibility for what they say and do, I was pleasantly pleased to see that some bloggers are raising the bar when it comes to posting blogs. While some continue to take a wild west approach to blogging, there is an increasing trend towards holding bloggers accountable for their posted comments. I agree that standards are necessary for responsible blogging as opposed to an "anything goes" policy for posting.
With this post I am experimenting with double posting and inserting a link to an article. Let's see if I was successful..

I was reading an article recently in School Library Journal about Social Media Policies. If it wasn't so late I'd look it up online. I'll find it later and forward to you. Not sure I remember enough of it to comment intelligently, but there is a need.
ReplyDeleteResponsibility is the best policy, yes?
