Comment Guidelines
Writing Comments
1. Read the Post & other Comments
Make sure you’ve really read the post and other comments – you don’t want to repeat what others are saying, you want to add something.
2. Highlight and Praise
Point out something positive that you appreciated or connected with in the original post. Tell them something nice.
3. Connect and Share
Share how you connected or agreed with the post. You can talk about a time when something similar happened to you or how you have experienced something like they talk about. You can also include a link to clarify your information.
4. Respectfully Disagree
You will not always agree with your peers. That’s ok! Be sure to make a positive comment before you offer an alternative opinion. Highlight their positive, and then share your counter argument in a kind and respectful tone.
5. Ask Questions
If you have a question about something they talked about, ask it!
6. Talk it Out
Your post should be a solid paragraph in length. Be sure you are really giving them meaningful and worthwhile feedback.
7. Double check before publishing!
Read it over at least one time for spelling, grammar, and whether it makes sense. Remember, this is public!
