Welcome to the Comm 380 Blog

Greetings and welcome to the Comm 380 blog! This site will hopefully serve 2 main purposes:

1. Reflection Posts & Discussion Questions: Each week you will reflect on an overall topic for that week. These posts will be primarily guided by the readings from Taking Sides. Other topics could spring from the textbook, film, and lecture materials. Each Monday a topic of the week will be posted on the blog. Students should respond to these questions and reference readings by 8 p.m. the Thursday of that week.

2. Continued Discussion of Course Concepts: It is my hope that the blog will be used as a way to extend our course discussions. Please feel free to post videos, additional blogs, news links, etc. We should use this site as a way to share pertinent information with one another

This blog is private so please do not share this material with others. Also please be respectful of the worldviews of other students. While I encourage you to challenge arguments, please do so in a respectful manner. Even when you do not personally agree with others’ perspectives, you can still understand, appreciate, and learn from them. I look forward to reading your blogs and bringing these ideas into the class for discussion.

Cheers!~Sara
