Quality Blog Post Checklist

BLOG POST CHECKLIST - Creating a Quality Blog Post

Components	Beginner	Stepping Up	Smart Learner
Learning	What have I been learning? I’ve identified what I have been learning about I included an image, drawing or a screenshot of my learning	How do I know I have learnt? My post includes information and ideas that demonstrate my understanding I created a DLO that represents my ideas about the learning: eg, a video, diagram, infographic etc	Reflected on my learning: My post includes new ideas and what I enjoyed or found challenging I’ve explained what my next steps are, what questions I still have,  and what I might do differently next time
Impact	I have recounted my learning experience Most of my ideas are organised I included a photo, illustration or screenshot	My title is unique or catchy My DLO is original, relevant and adds interest or further information My post may include embedded html content e.g. collage, video, Google Slide, animation etc	My content communicates my personality e.g. interests, values My information and ideas help my audience to understand the learning, and I’ve included a link to this activity on my class learning site Content is original - DLO is created by me
Punctuation	I’ve made spelling and punctuation errors Difficult for the reader to understand	I have checked for punctuation and spelling I have asked a buddy to read, made corrections, and there are no obvious errors	I’m confident all spelling and punctuation is correct and content makes sense for my readers
Layout	My font sizes and colour may vary and need formatting My images or embedded content might need to be resized I may not have included relevant labels or title	I previewed layout to check position & size of images and embedded html content Font size and colour are formatted I’ve included title & labels   My content is attributed if it’s not original	Media/html content is formatted e.g. size, position, and appears when post loads My labels and title are relevant & improve searching Some posts may be scheduled for publishing
