Homework – Brainstroming Best Practices

November 8, 2012 | Posted in: Homework Assignments

Best practices are, basically, lists of “good things to do.”  Here are some we brainstormed in class!

Car repair:

  • Keep bandaids in your tool kit.
  • Wear protective gloves.
  • Always have someone else with you in case something goes wrong.
  • Never go under a car while it’s running.

Best practices for football:

  • Never tackle helmet to helmet.
  • Never run with your head down.
  • Don’t grab someone’s face mask.
  • Don’t ever play without your gear.

Best practices for long car rides:

  • Bring something to keep you entertained. (Passengers)
  • If you’re the driver, pay attention to the road.
  • Don’t read or watch videos if you get car sick.
  • Try to avoid the middle seat in the back.
  • Always test your brakes and check your fluids before you leave.
  • Never sit next to an annoying member of your family. 🙂

Tonight, your homework is to think about items that could be on a list of “Best Practices for Class Website Discussions.”  Log on and post your ideas in a comment.  You can click “reply” to comment on someone else’s idea!

    Here’s my first idea (as an example for everyone). A good best practice is to never EVER use your name or anyone else’s name!

          Later in the year, we will talk about online safety. But it is best to watch out how much you publicly share online. GOOD QUESTION, 17!

      my idea rocks right

    • jonmoss
      November 8, 2012

      I like this one. If people are going to fell comfortable sharing their ideas on the website, they need to know that people can disagree with their ideas without being rude or unkind.

      • 1213-4
        November 8, 2012

        I really like your idea Mr.Moss. In fact, it’s great!

      LOVE THIS. You wouldn’t go roaming around the town by yourself at this age. It’s equally unwise for you to use the Internet without adult help at this age.

  8. 1213-6
    November 8, 2012

    I mean on the computer

    • 1213-3
      November 8, 2012

        November 9, 2012

        don’t just write a word that is 2 letters into 82 letters!!!!!!

        • jonmoss
          November 10, 2012

          Perhaps that’s a best practice worth considering. Avoid exaggerated spelling? Writing “Ohhhhhh” is one thing, but 82 letters may be a bit much. Worth discussing!

    • 1213-4
      November 8, 2012

      Right. Great advice!

  9. 1213-15
    November 8, 2012
