Welcome! Blog assignment 1

This is the blog for Psychology 293, Seattle University's "Popular Myths About Human Behavior." We’ll be talking about brains and creativity, aggression in little boys and girls, and why Presidential cabinets often make terrible decisions. Something to capture everyone’s interest.

Why a blog? We'll use this spot to share ideas outside of class (I don't know about you, but I don’t always have my best ideas in class), and I’ll post questions to help you prepare for discussion. We’ll also use it to acquaint ourselves with some of the cool features of a blog.

Blog Assignment 1 | Due Wednesday March 31 | 12:00 noon
GOAL: Making certain everyone can use the technology.

Your first assignment? This one is simple: What is good netiquette? Write a quick 1-2 sentence reply, and be sure to include your initials at the start or end of the post so that I can give you credit for the post. My primary goal is to ensure everyone can log in, and my secondary goal is to discuss good rules of thumb for online posts.
