I still would like to know how one can change your current template for something else without creating a new blog. <br />For the duration of this course I'll be using the other blog; http://jules-namjules.blogspot.com/<br />If you have the time please help with some guidelines. I would like to be in a position where I can assist my students when we use blogs next semester.<br /><br />Kind regards<br />JulesJuliethttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09720586181375722059noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7175615826454870291.post-4717222881806885322010-04-09T01:04:00.000-07:002010-04-09T01:40:22.017-07:00Week 1: Blogging<div>Hi</div><br /><div> </div><br /><div>Finally I have arrived! I know for many of you creating a blog is nothing worth mentioning but for me it is a major achievement. </div><br /><div>At first I thought creating a blog would be difficult, but it wasn't, thanks to Deborah's very descriptive guide.</div><br /><div>I was very impressed by Larry Ferlazzo's blog, <a href="http://larryferlazzo.edublogs.org/2008/02/09/the-best-ways-for-students-and-anyone-else-to-create-online-content-easily-quickly-painlessly/">http://larryferlazzo.edublogs.org/2008/02/09/the-best-ways-for-students-and-anyone-else-to-create-online-content-easily-quickly-painlessly/</a>. </div><br /><div>He dared me to view technology and its implications in enhancing my teaching as a need an not as an option. I am ready to try some of his ideas. In addition he had very basic skill requirements to use these technological tools. I'll start with the option of using the <em>Historical Tale Construction Kit.</em> In the English course I'm teaching, we place a lot of emphasis on reading. I hope this tool will help make reading more interesting for my students. </div><br /><div>The class blog, as presented by Campbell and Blogging for ESL, was very interesting. Many a time students wish to participate more than what class time allows. I will try the class blog as an space where class discussions can continue. </div><br /><div>Regards</div><br /><div>Jules</div>Juliethttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09720586181375722059noreply@blogger.com3
