If you haven't, please check your blog listings!

It is high time you did!

Last Wednesday, June 6, a student in one class pointed out that the blog link for a student in another class did not work. I was surprised because the student who pointed out the dysfunctional link was in a second period class, and the student whose blog URL was not accurate was in a first period class. He, she or his or her classmates should have pointed out the faulty link already.

That faulty link was on the Writing Studio Wiki, in section 2.3, and Writing III instructors had already copied the faulty link to another list on the WinK community site. We'd also added the faulty link to the blog feeds for that student's class.

So, in effect, one student discovered and pointed out not one but two faulty links, and we (the instructors and site administrators) were able to contact the student whose blog had gone missing, get an accurate URL, and add the correct URL both to blog lists and RSS feeds for the WinK blogging community.

If you find any other faulty links, in course-related blogs, web pages or wikis, please report them to your instructor immediately. Thank you for your cooperation in the past, and in advance!
