RARRRRRG! DON'T JUST POST AT RANDOM!
It's quite irritating that no one is actually carrying on a conversation, they're just posting opinions without any reply to what others think. What's further irritating is when people just say generic things like "I find this apalling," or "This is terrible". What's the worst is people just saying "Oh, well this is a great example of how INSERT COLLEGE GEO TOPIC HERE is affecting our world." I hate you, generic, robotic posters.

You aren't required to read every post or comment, pick the ones you like and focus on them. If it seems redundant maybe you guys should try a more back and forth approach in commenting, check back to see if someone has commented back to you, respond to each other. Or look for more information about a topic that we haven't been able to explore in depth in class.
The idea here is that you guys should gain knowledge of what is happening in the world, you need to be able to relate it to your lives, and you need to be able to discuss it intelligently with peers and superiors, (bosses and supervisors.)
I could have you do a current events assignment that you turn in and no one but me sees it, but what good would that do? (And how long would it take me to grade it?)
This should be an opportunity for you to explore in depth topics we don't have time for in class and a way for all of you to share your thoughts; something that would be more difficult in an in class discussion.
