Examples: What improvements would you suggest to your classmate about their blog? What other information would you like to know about the subject they blogged about? What did you like about their blog? Is there something you would like to see more of in their blog post? What important information do you think they left off of their blog post? Are the links they provided interesting? Or should they provide links to different websites? Did they use correct spelling and was it easy to read? Or hard to understand? Was the blog neat? Or could it use some improvements visually like changing the layout of the pictures used?
