c. Blog post: Reflect on the day and write a bit about your about your-self & what you did during orientation & upload your banner.

USE IMAGES: do not merely copy paste images in to your blog.

Always upload images into the “Media” section of blog first, and then set the image from the media folder to display on your blog.

USE “CATEGORIES”: Check mark the “2018 Fall – 2019 Spring” category box for all the blog posts you make this semester, so that all of your work is documented in the correct semester.



LAST STEP

Comment on Basecamp:  Let us know you’ve completed this task, via base camp. Upload a link from your blog, to your basecamp to-do.
