Guide for Teachers: How to Create a Classroom Blog
During the past week, I've been working on creating a document which will be a 'guide' or a 'primer' that can be used by fellow faculty to create a team blog for their class/course. Here is the result:
I am requesting the members of the Blogging Committee to please review this document. At this point, especially if you are reading this from within our committee's blog (through the link I sent via email), you should already have some familiarity with signing up for a Google/Blogger/Blogspot account; you remember that these are all one and the same.
Since this particular blog entry is an experiment to see whether I could embed a document within a blog post, I also sent an attachment via email. That attachment is the same as the document that you see above.
Over the next few weeks, please review this guide, and then offer your comments, suggestions, and anything else that you think may help some of our interested fellow faculty to try implementing a classroom blog in their Summer phase course. Once I include your suggestions, I would like to 'print' this, perhaps make hard copies for those who prefer to read from 'traditional' paper, and distribute it to as many faculty as will read and consider it.
Thank you for doing this during our time off from school. I have tried not to meet much during the busy school year, and I know that I am making an imposition on your vacation by asking you to do this. We can make a lot of progress by doing it this way. I am sincerely grateful for your time and your input.
As another 'exercise' in the blogging experience, please LEAVE A COMMENT in the space below. It will help me to know that you've visited the blog site.
Again, thanks, and I hope you are having a restful time off.
p.s. In case you cannot see the document above, or you cannot get it from the attachment I sent to your email, here is a direct link.
