This is a general rubric for learners to reflect critically on posts made on their blogs. At several points during the course, learners are asked to select two significant posts, and complete the self-assessments on their own blogging process. This self-assessment activity is suitable for all learners participating in various types of edublogging learning spaces, though I will likely refine it further depending on individual learners and learning contexts.AudienceWho are you writing for?
